More than fifty writers. One unforgettable final line.
From lyrical poetry and literary fiction to flash fiction and experimental prose, every piece in this unique anthology ends with the same haunting sentence:
“By morning, the sea had taken it.”
The result is a remarkable collection of voices from around the world, each taking the reader somewhere entirely unexpected. Together, these poems and stories explore love, loss, memory, mystery, hope, humour, and the many ways a single line can transform a narrative.
A celebration of imagination and the endless possibilities of storytelling, this pamphlet proves that while every ending may be the same, every journey is completely unique.
By Heidi Hinda Chadwick
An enchanting tale where Manchester’s familiar streets tilt toward the uncanny. The Story of the Deer Woman is a strange, sensual and fiercely imaginative novella from writer and performer Heidi Hinda Chadwick.
After a chance encounter inside the Manchester Museum, an ordinary woman finds her life beginning to unravel in wild and impossible ways. Reality blurs. Desire stirs. Antlers bloom. What follows is a journey into metamorphosis, myth and the hidden animal inside us all.
Chadwick’s writing is vivid, lyrical and daring. Influenced by the unsettling brilliance of Mona Awad, Bora Chung, Sayaka Murata and Ottessa Moshfegh, she creates a world where the macabre meets the human, where power and eros live at the edges, and where the strange becomes a kind of truth.
This is the first adult fiction title from Lemon Jelly Press, chosen for its bold heart and its commitment to amplifying unheard and marginalised voices. A story that is unsettling, beautiful and unforgettable.
