Une collection passionnante d’histoires nouvelles et classiques sur les redoutables djinns, écrites par des auteurs internationaux à succès, primés ou en rupture.

Imaginez un monde rempli d’êtres féroces et ardents, qui se cachent dans nos ombres, dans nos rêves, sous nos peaux. Ils nous espionnent et nous explorent, nous tourmentent et sauvent nos âmes. Ils sont des monstres, des sauveurs, des victimes, des amis d’enfance.

Et ils sont partout. Au coin des rues, au volant d’un taxi, dans les chœurs, entre les pages des livres. Chaque langue a un mot pour les désigner. Chaque culture connaît ses traditions. Dans chaque religion, dans chaque histoire, ils se cachent dans des endroits sombres.

Il n’y a aucune partie du monde qui ne les connaît pas. Ils sont les Djinn.

Avec des histoires de Neil Gaiman, Nnedi Okorafor, Amal El-Mohtar, Catherine Faris King, Claire North, E.J. Swift, Hermes (trans. Robin Moger), Jamal Mahjoub, James Smythe, J. Y. Yang, Kamila Shamsie, Kirsty Logan, K.J. Parker, Kuzhali Manickavel, Maria Dahvana Headley, Monica Byrne, Saad Hossain, Sami Shah, Sophia Al-Maria et Usman Malik.

An enthralling collection of new and classic tales of the fearsome Djinn, from bestselling, award-winning and breakthrough international writers.

Imagine a world filled with fierce, fiery beings, hiding in our shadows, in our dreams, under our skins. Eavesdropping and exploring; tormenting us, saving our souls. They are monsters, saviours, victims, childhood friends.

And they are everywhere. On street corners, behind the wheel of a taxi, in the chorus, between the pages of books. Every language has a word for them. Every culture knows their traditions. Every religion, every history has them hiding in their dark places.

There is no part of the world that does not know them. They are the Djinn.

With stories from Neil Gaiman, Nnedi Okorafor, Amal El-Mohtar, Catherine Faris King, Claire North, E.J. Swift, Hermes (trans. Robin Moger), Jamal Mahjoub, James Smythe, J.Y. Yang, Kamila Shamsie, Kirsty Logan, K.J. Parker, Kuzhali Manickavel, Maria Dahvana Headley, Monica Byrne, Saad Hossain, Sami Shah, Sophia Al-Maria and Usman Malik.
