As with Angela Carter´s Book of Fairy Tales, The Virago Book of Witches will become a perennial favourite. Witches are once again in the ascendancy! Reissued with a new introduction by the editor

Beware the women who are called witches, or those who claim the name for themselves...

Banshees - a howling night-witch and harbinger of death; She-devils - Lilith and her daughters; or Bitches - Hecate, whose chariot is drawn by dogs.

Alluring women, enchantresses, seekers of revenge, wise old women and badly-behaved girls. As Shahrukh Husain says: ´ witches... womanhood in all its complexity´

Over fifty stories of crones and nixies, shape shifters and beauties are here, including the loving fox witch of Japan; Italy´s Witch-Bea-Witch; Scotland´s Goodwife of Laggan; Biddy Earl and the terrifying Kali and Baba Yaga who comes in many forms to haunt, entice, possess, transform and challenge.

From every corner of the globe, with tom-foolery, fun, strife and victory, these folklore and legends celebrate women who step out of line.
