Omschrijving
An unlikely friendship, an unforgettable journey. It's a Wonderful Life meets A Christmas Carol.
An elegiac novel, with the poignant elegance of a fading society belle – and some raucous belly laughs along the way
The story asks readers to accept the miraculous, and rewards them in return with a beautifully written story, full of memorable characters and scenes, and the sense that life can be wonderful if you follow the right road.
This book sent me on a roller coaster of emotions. Despite shedding tears, I found it to be full of hope as well as being very beautiful and poignant. This is a must read for adults, let alone children!
It's a wonderful story, full of laughter and gasps and the occasional tear - calling a book a future classic can be a cliché, but this one definitely deserves the accolade. Do not, under any circumstances, miss it.
Gorgeous writing combines with a hauntingly bleak near-future setting, a whiff of holiday magic, and a transcendent story arc to make this novel feel like the classic it deserves to become.
Moira Young was an actress and opera singer before becoming a writer. She is the author of the critically acclaimed Dustlands trilogy: Blood Red Road, Rebel Heart and Raging Star, published in thirty countries. Blood Red Road, her debut novel, won a host of prizes, including the Costa Children’s Book Award, the BC Book Prize, the Cybils Award for Fantasy and Science Fiction and Le Prix des Incorruptibles. A native of Vancouver, Canada, she now lives in the UK.
