Storm Dragons, A Novel
Storm Dragons is a historical speculative fiction novel set in BC’s Lower Mainland from the sixties onward. It follows Chinese Canadian sisters Meising and Meiji who can dream their way into the spirit world, inhabited by beings like the storm dragons in charge of rainfall. When Meising is institutionalized for bipolar, she meets other patients with their own spirit world connections. But what can dreams do against the waking world dangers of a healthcare system convinced hurting you is for your own good? Storm Dragons draws upon Chinese folklore and lived experience in asylums like British Columbia’s Riverview while exploring the nuances of complex family ties and differing cultural conceptions of neurodivergence.
