Geometries of Belonging — R.B. Lemberg

Nebula and Locus award finalist Lemberg returns us to the Birdverse with this powerful collection of poems and stories. In the Birdverse, a magic loosely based in geometry is a source of craftsmanship, art, protection and healing. Multiple cultures and countries engage in trade relationships and political alliances. Cultures make use of magic according to their own traditions and rules, and worship the deity Bird, in whichever feathered from Bird takes. And within these countries and cultures, individuals hurt and are hurt, heal and are healed. - Bookslut
