520    N. K. Jemisin is one of the most powerful and acclaimed 
       speculative fiction authors of our time. In the first 
       collection of her evocative short fiction, Jemisin equally
       challenges and delights readers with thought-provoking 
       narratives of destruction, rebirth, and redemption. In 
       these stories, Jemisin sharply examines modern society, 
       infusing magic into the mundane, and drawing deft 
       parallels in the fantasy realms of her imagination. 
       Dragons and hateful spirits haunt the flooded streets of 
       New Orleans in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. In a 
       parallel universe, a utopian society watches our world, 
       trying to learn from our mistakes. A black mother in the 
       Jim Crow South must save her daughter from a fey offering 
       impossible promises. And in the Hugo award-nominated short
       story "The City Born Great," a young street kid fights to 
       give birth to an old metropolis's soul
