Remembering with sadness that somebody already wrote a really good YA contemporary magical-realism Orpheus and Eurydice story. (It's All Our Pretty Songs by Sarah McCarry.)

Oh well.

The general feeling of desperation-slash-inspiration that there are not enough books out there like the ones I want to read still stands.
