in the jewish mystical tradition, there are literally thousands of tales concerning the prophet elijah coming back to earth and performing weird miracles, telling tall tales, and generally screwing up bad guys while helping good ones. after all the fun i had with the undwellable city, and all the positive feedback, i thought that my next project for the winds would be a kind of hybrid teaching atlas//novel.
“second story man” is a compilation of over a hundred different legends, fables, folktales and myths from christian history and tradition, all woven together in a larger framing story concerning the prophet elijah. we’ll teach through some of it in the cue, beginning mid-february, and the book will be available exclusively through the westwinds bookstore.
