THE RED CHORUS by Ann DeVilbiss *Pre-order*

from $13.95

Paperback, 54 Pages

Cover Design by Birch Miller with art by Koloman Moser

Both ritual & incantation, “The Red Chorus” invites readers into a liminal space where language makes the impossible real. In this esoteric collection, a chorus of voices rises, each distinct, yet resonating together in a polyphonic exploration of the self, the world, & the spaces in between. Eschewing the singular gaze, this book is a multi-voiced landscape where identities shift, overlap, & blur, revealing the transformative power of language itself.

Here, words aren’t just vessels for meaning, but incantations conjuring worlds from the void, shaping reality through the alchemy of poetic craft. Drawing on the sensibilities of a hedge witch, Ann treats creation as an act of everyday magic, tracing the threads between what is spoken & unspoken, & that which exists in the charged silence between.

“Spell for Sanctuary” Soy Wax Candle by Marvel + Moon

Comes in a 3oz tin

This is not just a candle, but a spell for sanctuary. Its scent is a cool plunge into creamy milk & a warm nest of heat. The cardamom & cinnamon are the thick fat of a second skin, a hidden solace in a world that smells of iron & salt. Like the breath of a slumbering lion, the gentle scent of chestnut is a lullaby that invites you to be carried on a wind of pine & dragon’s blood, tethering you to this sacred space. This is the perfume of a temporary quiet, a secret you keep with the dark, a small fluff of seed lifted softly into sleep.

ADORNMENTS: Pine Needles. Dragon’s Blood Resin. Black Styrax.

*Ritual candle sold separately.

QUOTES ABOUT THE BOOK:

A book of wonder and darkness.  Each poem in The Red Chorus opens the door wider to a world where we are "unraveled by / the numb moon singing," and our bodies become "God's // gruesome torch." Through feminist spells and fairytale charms, through rhythm and haunting image, DeVilbiss reminds us that, while "survival requires / milk of blood," there will always rise "out of ruin // wonder." 

—Thera Webb, author of THE WITCH, A Play
