A novel about memory and magic and survival, about the power of stories and the darkness inside each of us… as pure as a dream, as delicate as a butterfly’s wing, as dangerous as a knife in the dark.
The publisher’s description of the next Neil Gaiman novel is exactly the same thing that we’d write if we were writing a parody of Neil Gaiman.  ”As pure as a dream, as delicate as a butterfly’s wing.”  Oooh-la-la.  Does every copy come with an ascot?  ”It’s a book about the power of stories, that’s as bittersweet as gossamer teardrops.”   “It’s a book about the power of stories that’s as ephemeral as a stolen wedding cake.”  ”It’s a book about the power of stories, that’s as comforting as a unicorn’s vagina.”
