Conjured from a wickedly imaginative pen, this book includes tales that combine the everyday with the unexpected; wild fantasy with bittersweet reality.

| Synopsis: |
Stories are like Russian dolls; open them up, and in each one you'll find another story. Conjured from a wickedly imaginative pen, here is a new collection of short stories that showcases Joanne Harris' exceptional talent as a teller of tales, a spinner of yarns. Sensuous, mischievous, uproarious and wry, these are tales that combine the everyday with the unexpected; wild fantasy with bittersweet reality. Come to the house where it is Christmas all year round; meet the ghost who lives on a Twitter timeline; be spooked by a new born baby created with sugar, spice and lashings of cake; worry for a young girl in the Congo who rides the rapids to earn a crust of bread; and spy on Norse gods battling each other for survival in modern Manhattan. In her first short-story collection since "Jigs & Reels", let Joanne Harris ensnare and delight you with the variety and inventiveness of her storytelling. |
