039 - Chris Beckett - Peacock Cloak (2010)

Jul 01, 2016, 08:31 AM

Chris Beckett's short story Peacock Cloak was first published by Asimov's Magazine in June 2010. I listened to this on the Clarkesworld podcast from October 2015.

Peacock Cloak is a science fantasy about a god-like being with a powerful cloak and is a meditation on the themes of power, will, regret and forgiveness.

I'm posting these shows, along with my own fiction, on my website www.joncronshaw.com - my latest story is called To Grip the Bright White Chains and is a postapocalyptic story about an elderly drug dealer.
