Nordic Visions: The Best of Speculative Fiction in Bloomington, MN

**The first true celebration of contemporary Nordic science fiction, fantasy and horror! **
Tales of the dark, fantastical and delightfully strange from the best voices in Nordic fiction.
Storytelling has been a major force in the Nordic countries for thousands of years, from the epic Icelandic Sagas to best-selling crime with a noir flair. This anthology collects stories by the best names in Nordic speculative fiction, many of which are appearing in English for the first time.
Across dark dystopian sci-fi, mythical fantasy, and terrifying horror, from the rational to the eccentric, these stories combine a deep sense of place with social criticism, themes of loneliness and identity, and the concern for humanity’s impact on the wilderness.
