Fear the hunter, never the witch. A spirit wanders the Scottish moors, desperate for answers. An Empress and her mistress seek revenge in the Chinese Imperial Court. A Black freewoman scavenges for truth in the bodies of Confederate soldiers. A damsel flees to a convent to escape a knight-in-obsessive-armor. Across every manner of time and place, women have been labelled crazy. Hysterical. Witches. To be labelled a witch was once a death sentence. Persecuted for existing and condemned if they dared to speak out of turn, women were unjustly hanged and burned in the name of patriarchal justice. The label remains a way for those in power to discredit and disenfranchise empowered women. But there is power in defiance. There is power in reclamation. There is power in embracing one's inner witch.With a foreword by author M.B. Thurman, Curses, Charms & Other Enchantments presents 9 stories of feminine love, rage, and empowerment, all imbued with the magic of witchcraft—tales of cursed women, charming smiles, and enchanted ever-afters.
