"Be careful: reading Eric Schaller's collection, Voice of the Stranger, opens a door to the fairy tale realm of the mythically eerie and meaningful...one that you may not find as easy to close." - Will Ludwigsen


"Fans of Angela Carter's rewriting of fairy tales will find particular delight in this skillfully written, if grisly, collection." - Kirkus Reviews 


by Eric Schaller


Folk tales, legends, and even a holiday become strange and eerie thanks to Eric Schaller's imagination.
