by Elwin Cotman
Dance on Saturday is a collection of stories about transformation, loss, and human nature.
Church-going immortals tend life-extending fruit. Swarms of deadly wasps engineered by a polymath sorcerer battle killer snails. Geese take human form and must survive juvenile detention. A high school, high-stakes volleyball game turns demonic. Heroes and monsters people these exuberant, magical tales.
"Cotman wields biting wit, powerful emotion, and magic large and small throughout these six superlative stories...[his] bold and timely speculative fiction marks him as a writer to watch." - Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Fun, inventive fiction that refreshes the fantasy genre with elements of black heritage and culture." - Kirkus Reviews
