Where the octopus dreams

Eight short stories by Ankalina Dahlem take you into a fever dream of longing and loss.
Where the octopus dreams reads like if Angela Carter had written fairy tales while recovering from a broken heart in a damm cold Berlin winter.
This slender collection of eight interconnected stories follows an unnamed narrator´s pursuit of a shy octopus through impossible waters, each tentacle leaving behind a tale that shifts between brutal realism and shimmring fantasy.
