Take a haunting tour of interwar London in Farewell, Everything author’s second book, Unthreaded
A postmortem autobiography of an uncommon man
CORVALLIS, Ore., March 8, 2022 – Nowhere Press, independent publisher of speculative fiction and magical realism, is pleased to announce the release of Unthreaded, a surreal historical fiction novella by author H.B. Cavalier.
Twice-displaced refugee Reuven B. was a creative soul – both as a dressmaker and as a misfit. At home in the no man’s land between chronic illness and optimism, peace and war, orthodox Judaism and the love of another man, Reuven mastered the art of synthesizing opposites into one short, bittersweet, poetic life.
But he never mastered his own self-doubt.
Recounting his life from the other side of death, Reuven offers readers a unique view into two world wars, a mystical study of love, and a gripping tale of a soul turned against itself. With a sensitive eye, our posthumous narrator dissects his experiences, looking for lessons he can bring into a new body, a new life, and a new story.
Unthreaded by H.B. Cavalier is to be published on March 8, 2022, from Nowhere Press. It will be immediately available on paperback (list price $13.99, 176 pages, ISBN 9781734086621) and ebook ($3.99, ISBN 9781734086638) from select booksellers, with wider retail distribution forthcoming in April 2022.

Twenty percent of the net profits from sales of this book will be donated to the following 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations: Refugees International and the Trevor Project.
About the author
H.B. Cavalier was born and raised in the Pacific Northwest, though her experiences in Israel, the West Bank, and the Peruvian Amazon have also influenced her work. Equal parts writer and mystic, she uses fiction to untangle psychic knots, explore collective karma, and heal past lives. Unthreaded is her second book, following the darkly comedic magical realism novel Farewell, Everything, which was published under the pen name Véva Perala. When she’s not channeling war ghosts, she enjoys traveling, gardening, and creating art with her small family.
