"The #dybbuk is an iconic villain of #Jewish #folklore. As we know from #SAnsky’s 1920 play “#TheDybbuk,” this malevolent spirit clings to a human host, taking over its body and mind to haunting and tragic effect.
But in #EllenGalford’s 1993 #satiricalnovel “The Dyke and the Dybbuk,” a dybbuk named Kokos meets her match in a 20th century Jewish #lesbian named Rainbow Rosenbloom.
Now, ahead of the #novel’s June 2 rerelease via Sinister Wisdom, we are pleased to share an excerpt of this vital piece of #queer Jewish #literature.
The following is an excerpt from “#TheDykeandtheDybbuk” by Ellen #Galford."

The Trows of #Orkney and #Shetland
What is a #Trow?
According to Saxby and Edmondston’s 'Home of a #Naturalist’ (1888):
“This interesting race of #supernatural beings is closely allied to the #Scandinavian #Trolls, but has some very distinctive characteristics of its own. The Trow is not such a mischief-making #sprite as the Troll, is more #human-like in some respects, and his #nature seems cast in a #morbid, #melancholy mould.”

Update:
Blocking All the Bots on the Internet from crawling my website appears to have worked. AI summaries no longer reference me except through third parties (Amazon, etc). My website has also fallen down to the third page of search results on Google. It only took a week or so.
The result may appear to be unfortunate; I am trying to disseminate Norwegian folktales and legends (i.e. sell books), after all. But to me the most important consideration is preventing corporate vampires from feeding on my creative juices. It looks like I am succeeding at this.
But what about spreading the word? I have a plan. Whether it will work remains to be seen.
