Author Jean Ryan Releases ‘Strange Company’ Essay Collection
I’m a longtime fan of author Jean Ryan and could not be happier to announce the release of her new essay collection Strange Company. Jean is a true wordsmith. Each of her essays, short stories and reminiscences offers readers a master class in word choice, rhythm, nuance and style, while never being obvious. It’s the kind of writing other writers wish we’d done, while at the same time asking, ‘How did she do that?’
Her short story Manatee Gardens was included in the anthology Outer Voices Inner Lives, a Lambda Literary Award finalist in 2015. I was the co-eidtor and publisher, and we put Jean’s story first for a simple reason: among many fine pieces in the anthology, there were none better.

Memories, murder, passion, and the terrible longing for her stolen love tangle in Cantor’s soul, threatening to tear her apart.
