The Morijana Series
The Morijana Series takes its (adult!) readers to rural Transylvania in the 17th century. „Imaginative and well-crafted pieces of provocative fiction,“ the critics praised. „You will want to dig your teeth right into the juicy bits.“
The heroine, gypsy pedlar Morijana, is a courageous and cunning woman who takes her fate into her own hands—as long as the dark creatures she encounters allow it. She has to prove herself in tough battles and is rewarded with enjoyable (explicit) experiences.
The books are the product of the author’s geeky love for language and meaning, rural culture and European history. You will find carefully researched historical detail, folklore, mythology, superstition, and magic. The joyful play with languages led to a collection of nuggets from Romani, Romanian, Hungarian, French, German, Middle High German, Yiddish―and English. Thus, the novels mirror the diversity of voices from the vanished Habsburg Empire.
Moral disclaimer: These crypto-feminist novels play their game not only with folklore and historic detail. They are adult fiction in the very sense, featuring deviant sex, arcane practices and fractured genre stereotypes. Readers under the age of 18 please refrain, for your own good!
