Stigmata: An Anthology of Writing and Art cover

    Twice nominated for the 2002 World Fantasy Award, in the 'Best Anthology' and 'Special Award: Non-Professional' categories

Stigmata is a collection of fiction, essays, poetry and artwork covering a wide range of subjects. Its purpose is to entertain and inform using a variety of work, much of which is out of print or difficult to find. The contents are somewhat eclectic.

For customers wishing to try before they buy, a prospectus booklet has been produced to show off a little of this lavishly produced book, giving an idea of the cover and interior. Also included is much information regarding the physical nature of the book, including its archival paper stock, high quality presswork, Italian cloth binding, and other details. The nominal price of the prospectus is fully refundable against the price of your order.
