Originally issued in 2010 in Bucharest by the cult publisher Ex Occidente, in an edition of only 150 copies, The Sons of Ishmael, George Berguño's debut collection of short fiction, is here presented for the first time in a paperback edition.

Featuring strangers and outcasts, beguiled and despised by a world that had once been their home, these remarkable and unpredictable tales take the reader from Norwegian Lapland to nineteenth-century Chile, from the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, to Hitler's Germany, and from a timeless town in the New World to the Orkney Isles. Chance plays havoc with history, where the living are fatefully intertwined with the dead, and where human desires clash with forces unknown.

Despite its heretofore rarity, The Sons of Ishmael is a classic of contemporary fantastic fiction-a deeply nostalgic collection of stories about, as much as for, wandering souls.
