“Luminous. Beautifully unmoored.” -- David Rocklin, author of The Night Language and The Luminist Home: Quote Having been given the privilege of reading most of the stories in OSTRACA prior to its official release was such an unforgettable experience. Beautifully crafted stories in intriguing prose...Ms. Krause’s exquisite presence in these pages exudes magic. She does not disappoint. -- David Claessen, film producer, cinematographer, 'Diary of a Mad Black Woman,' and 'The Rosa Parks Story'
"People speak of luck, fortune, but they fail to see the pitted afternoons, dark and gritty as the flesh of dried figs. They are unaware of the night beasts that appear in my room, wet monsters that leap from a glowering well of memory. Songbirds, they come in the morning. When I have lost my voice, I listen for them." -- From Isabell Krause's OSTRACA Home: Quote "This story will stick with me and have me remembering Isabell Krause's name as one to look for in Tables of Contents from now on." -- Dan Wickett
