Based on “Black Feather” by K Tempest Bradford

This story is inarguably interstitial: is it a re-imagined fairy tale? A dream story? Magical realism? I can’t say for sure. Yet it is most certainly a tale of the Wood, for all that therein the Wood exists only in dreams and one small wooded park in an obscure corner of Manhattan. In this wood is a hill and, at the top of this hill, is a cave. The Wood, the hill, the cave, the sky: compelling elemental presences evoking the Hanged Man, the lost girl, the ravens, and what redemption we can find. These were the threads that asked to be woven in wood and glass, semi-precious stone and gleaming metal. I like to believe that I gave Tempest’s story another method of flight.
