Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Long-listed for the 2016 Edge Hill Short Story Prize Fly Away Home is Marina Warners third and eagerly-awaited collection of short stories. Inspired by fairy tales, legends, and mythology, this timeless selection explores the themes of love and war in families, and between generations. In Melusi…ne a gorgeous mermaid encounters disaster in love and visits her aunt, Morgan le Fay, to pour out her woes ; in Breadcrumbs a hospital patient overhears a night nurse recounting an extraordinary tale of family torn apart under terrifying circumstances. Out of the Burning House introduces an elderly actor recalling an unusual case of heartbreak at the hands of a TV personality; in The Difference in the Dose a young mother becomes increasingly anxious about the rift between herself and her adoptive mother. And in Letter to an Unknown Soldier a thirteen year-old girl writes a heartrending second letter to an older brother away at war, having had no reply to her first Like her award-winning novels, Marina Warners stories conjure up mysteries and wonders in a physical world, treading a delicate, magical line between the natural and the supernatural, between openness and fear. An elegant mix of the poignant, the caustic, and the bizarre, Fly Away Home will be treasured by fans and new readers alike. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
