Description:Set in Europe from the fin de siècle to the early 20th century, these tales of murder, trickery, magic and transformation take us from the Opera House in Vienna, to a puppet theatre in Prague, and from a crypt in Palermo to a palace in St Petersburg.A toymaker disposes of a body in a novel way.A puppeteer and a music student set about writing an opera.A cobbler is magically transformed by a pair of ballroom slippers.A taxidermist’s life is endangered after he embalms the archbishop.A pawnbroker engages an assistant who is not all that she appears.A miller stumbles on a pigment that others will die for.From fairytales to nightmares, these stories engross, unsettle and celebrate the, sometimes dark, arts.Such imagination, power of invention, and deliciously mischievous sense of humour! Tanya Farrelly’s stories bring us to exotic times and places. Sometimes they are comfortingly resonant of the world of fairytale, sometimes macabre and menacing, and always startling.
