2017 Aurora Awards Best of the Decade FinalistIn book after book, and account after account, Charles de Lint has taken an entire imaginary UNITED STATES city to brilliant life. Newford: where special lights dark streets; where misconceptions walk clothed in modern designs; where a broad cast of extraordinary and impacting on people work to keep the entire world turning. At the center of all entwined lives in Newford stands a young artist called Jilly Coppercorn, with her tangled mane, her paint-splattered jeans, a smile perpetually on her lips--Jilly, whose paintings get the hidden beings that dwell in the city's shadows. Now, finally, de Lint tells Jilly's own account...for behind the painter's fey allure is a dark technique and a past she's labored to forget. And that past is coming to promise her now."I'm the onion young lady," Jilly Coppercorn says. "Pull back the layers of my life, and you won't find anything at the key. Just a cracked child. A hollow young lady." She's very, very good at jogging. But life has just pressured Jilly to stop.
