The Melancholy of Mechagirl

The Melancholy of Mechagirl

A woman who dreams of machines. A paper lantern that falls in love. The most compelling video game youâ€™ve never played and that nobody can ever play twice. This collection of Catherynne M. Valenteâ€™s stories and poems with Japanese themes includes the lauded novella â€œSilently and Very Fastâ€ and the award-nominated â€œThirteen Ways of Looking at Space/Time,â€ and â€œGhost of Gunkanjimaâ€â€”which originally appeared in a book smaller than your palm, published in a limited edition of twenty-four.

Also included are two new stories: the semiautobiographical metafictional, and utterly magical â€œInk, Water, Milkâ€ and the cinematic, demon-haunted â€œStory No.6.â€

â€œI finished this collection late one night and feel asleep and had what felt like a yearâ€™s worth of intense dreams.â€
â€”Charles Yu, author of Sorry Please Thank You
