THE MIGRATION

Helen Marshall

Neil Gaiman wrote of Helen's short fiction: “Helen Marshall is a writer who creates real people in real situations, then uses the fantastic to pry her way inside her readers' ribcages and break us wide open.”
Helen Marshall is an incredible author who has already made a name for herself with two collections of utterly original short fiction, which between them have won the World Fantasy Award, the British Fantasy Award, and the Shirley Jackson Award for outstanding achievement in the literature of psychological suspense, horror and the dark fantastic.

THE MIGRATION is the story of a girl who, after her younger sister drowns in a terrible storm, is determined to steal the body so she can discover for herself what dying means in a time of extraordinary transformation. The novel is reminiscent of THE GIRL WITH ALL THE GIFTS but with the literary feel of STATION ELEVEN.

HELEN MARSHALL has already made a name for herself with two collections of utterly original short fiction, which between them have won the World Fantasy Award, the British Fantasy Award, and the Shirley Jackson Award for outstanding achievement in the literature of psychological suspense, horror and the dark fantastic. After receiving a PhD from the prestigious Centre for Medieval Studies at the University of Toronto, Helen spent two years completing a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Oxford investigating literature written during the time of the Black Death. She was recently appointed Senior Lecturer of Creative Writing and Publishing at Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge, England and she is the general director of the Centre for Science Fiction and Fantasy.

Comments

“Marshall is a master at bizarre, myth-infused scenarios that play on a reader's subconscious in ways creepy and oddly pleasurable.”
