For Immediate Release

|
An erotic dark fantasy novella The Duke in His Castle by Vera Nazarian — the story of a young Duke confined by a mysterious barrier within the boundaries of his crumbling castle and an equally mysterious female intruder who comes to his castle bearing a box of bones — has been acquired by Papaveria Press.
"Vera Nazarian combines the wry and poignant charm of Hans Christian Andersen with the subversive wallop of Angela Carter in crafting this gem of a fairy tale. No longer merely a promising writer, Nazarian has arrived."— Paul Witcover

Vera Nazarian immigrated to the USA from the former USSR as a kid, sold her first story at the age of 17, and since then has published numerous works of short speculative fiction in anthologies and magazines, has seen her work on Preliminary Nebula Awards® Ballots, honorably mentioned in various Year's Best volumes, and translated into seven languages.
An active SFWA member, she made her novelist
debut with the critically acclaimed Dreams of the
Compass Rose, followed by epic fantasy about a
world without color, Lords of Rainbow. Look for
her debut short fiction collection Salt of the
Air with an introduction by Gene Wolfe from Prime
Books/Wildside in February 2006.
