A Handful of Coppers – Charles de Lint (2003)

This limited-edition collection gathers early short stories by Charles de Lint, the pioneer of urban fantasy and mythic fiction. Set in his signature world of Newford (and beyond), these tales blend folklore, music, and magic with gritty, contemporary settings. The anthology showcases de Lint’s evolution as a writer, from raw, experimental pieces to the lyrical, character-driven storytelling that defined his later work.
