Nothing is what it seems. and everything deserves a second look. From the multiple award-winning The Faery Handbag. in which a teenager's grandmother carries an entire village (or is it a man-eating dog) in her handbag. to the near -future of The Surfer. whose narrator (a soccer-playing skeptic) waits with a planeload of refugees for the aliens to arrive. Link's stories are funny and full of unexpected insights and skewed perspectives on the world. Her fans range from Michael Chabon to Peter Buck of REM to Holly Black of Spiderwick Chronicles fame. Now teens can have their world rocked. too!

Review:
"Funny, moving, tender, brave and dangerous. She is unique, and should be declared a national treasure, and possibly surrounded at all times by a cordon of armed marines." Neil Gaiman "Intoxicating. These stories will come alive, put on zoot suits, and wrestle you to the ground. They want you and you will be theirs." Alice Sebold "Link's stories play in a place few writers go, a netherworld between literature and fantasy, Alice Munro and JK Rowling." Time magazine "Wonderfully odd and original [and] very scary indeed." --Sarah Waters
Book Description:
Walker/Canongate present Kelly Link's tall tales to keep you up all night - however old you are.
