“Generally speaking, triggers are what throw us off balance. Here, by triggers, I rather mean those images, words or thoughts that swing open under our feet, like secret hatches, traps, and we fall out of our safe rational world into some other, much darker and inhospitable one. Our hearts start racing in our chests. The blood drains from the cheeks, the hands become cold. And we stand, gasping for air, out of breath, pale and shocked to the core.” Neil Gaiman. The new collection of the master of magical realism consists of 25 stories and poems that reveal the full power and power of the imagination. The pearl of the collection is the story “Black Dog” – a sequel to the cult novel “American Gods.”
