From the author of the legendary masterpiece “Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell” - “This is what the novel “The Master and Margarita” might have looked like if Dickens had written it” (A. Genis); “The best literary fairy tale in English over the last seventy years” (N. Gaiman) - eight stories about a magical England, one step away from “ordinary” England. Suzanne Clarke tells us about the various types of magic left behind the pages of her acclaimed novel. This is the magic of the elves, and the magic that master embroiderers can control, and even that which is stronger than witchcraft and thanks to which a simple person can defeat the strongest of magicians. “It feels like Jane Austen took and rewrote the fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm. Magical in every sense!” (Spectator)Translations are published in a new edition.
