Where the Sky is Silver

[reconditarmonia]

(full disclosure: I read this recently and am still processing, so I may or may not request it.)

FANDOM NAME: Where the Sky is Silver and the Earth is Brass

WHAT IS IT?: Short story by Sonya Taaffe.

Chaye is a Jewish former anti-Nazi partisan, now immigrated to Boston. And a demon out of folklore has followed her.

“We live in your mirrors. Where else would we go?...I lived where I was born, like all of us, between your dreams and your nightmares, in the land where the sky is silver and the earth is brass and all windows are mirrors, all mirrors are doors. It turned to broken glass, like yours did. Where you don’t stay, we can’t, either.”

WHAT MAKES IT GREAT: I'm fascinated by the glimpses of the demon's country, by how much he and they need her and hers. And Chaye, who named her bullets for her brothers who'd been killed, and her time in the partisans. It's also just beautifully written.
