Mirror Tarot: Major Arcana Deck by Sammy Lee and Sarah Shin

Pre-order: publishing October 2026 Mirror Tarot begins from Italo Calvino’s conception of the tarot as ‘a machine for constructing stories’ to present each card as a small world and a generative mirror. Following the tarot through centuries, a central essay contextualises the cards’ evolution within artistic, literary and intellectual history, from the Neoplatonist Renaissance to contemporary popular culture. Alongside the essay, the book offers a sequence of microfictions and creative writing prompts corresponding to the Major Arcana of the beautiful accompanying artist’s deck. Emerging from Mirror – an ongoing collaborative worldmaking act by Sammy Lee and Sarah Shin that spans game, ritual and performance – each card and its reading turns the tarot into a creative companion for play, divination and storytelling.
