The Blazing World is one of the most fascinating, unusual and
astonishing pieces of literature in the English language. Written
in 1666 by Margaret Cavendish, the Duchess of Newcastle, the story
follows a young woman who is transported to a world of
animal-people, becomes their empress, and eventually leads an
invasion back into her own world, complete with bird-man
bombardiers and submarine ships. The tale involves spirit
possession, astral projection, the many-worlds theory, and an
interdimensional otherworldly queer romance that is centuries ahead
of its time. Featuring numerous full-page and spot illustrations,
and housed in an elaborately die-cut and embossed slipcase, this is
an heirloom edition designed to be a work of art in its own right.
With an introduction by Brooke Bolander. 9x12", 138 pages.
