Goblin Bazaar
On her way home from work, Christina is lured into an empty shop by a strange creature. Christina is offered a bargain; battle the Goblin warrior Abria or buy an orphaned baby.
Inspired by Christina Rossetti's gothic poem Goblin Market, the narrative - with an emphasis on the bizarre - draws Christina herself into this hybrid story with a speculative edge.
Goblin Bazaar was published by the Open University, Write Club, Summer 2024 magazine.
