Tell Us About the Place: Marinya's does a steady business among women of the upper middle class, specializing in tailoring and fabrics with a side trade in miscellaneous exotic items (teas, jewelry, et cetera).
Who owns this shop? Marinya, an elderly woman who secretly practices what most of the country knows as "The Black Arts," though her intentions are ( ... )
