Mysterious Life of Hope Mirrlees
by Michael Swanwick
Preface by Neil Gaiman
Original frontispiece illustration by Charles Vess

Hope-in-the-Mist will be published 10 July 2009 at Readercon in Burlington, Massachusetts. Swanwick will be there, his usual affable, erudite & interstitially entertaining self, and Mirrlees will be the "Memorial Guest of Honor" (the "live" ones will be Elizabeth Hand & Greer Gilman, herself no slouch at expounding on Mirrlees & her work).

Hope Mirrlees in Person

[(Anonymous)]

I should mention that I have arranged for the late Ms Mirrlees to attend Readercon in person, and will be interviewing her there.

Not just anybody could make this happen.

Knowing you as I do, Ellen, I'm sure you'll want to get a front-row seat.
