Paperback. Condition: Very Good. From the author of The Loosening Skin and The Beauty, Aliya Whiteley, Skein Island is a powerful and disturbing look at the roles we play, and how they form and divide us. This new edition features a brand new novelette set in the same world as Skein Island. Skein Island, since 1945 a private refuge for women, lies in turbulent waters twelve miles off the coast of Devon. Visitors are only allowed by invitation from the reclusive Lady Amelia Worthington. Women stay for one week, paying for their stay with a story from their past; a Declaration for the Island's vast library. Marianne's invitation arrives shortly before her quiet life at the library is violently interrupted, the aftermath leaving her husband David feeling helpless. Now, just like her mother did seventeen years ago, she must discover what her story is. Secrets are buried deep on Skein Island. The monsters of Ancient Greece and the atrocities of World War II, heroes and villains with their seers and sidekicks, and the stories of a thousand lifetimes all threaten to break free. But every story needs an ending, whatever the cost. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Praise God, never the wind1996 Luca Saracino is thirteen and has been completely blind for eight months when his parents move to a Southern Italian farmhouse they dream of turning into a hotel. With his brother dropping out of university and the family reeling from Lucas diagnosis, they are chasing dreams of rebirth and reinvention.As Luca tells his story without sight - experiencing the world solely through hearing, smell, taste and touch he meets the dauntless Ada Guadalupi, who takes him out to explore the rocky fields and empty beaches. But Luca and Ada find they cant escape the grudges that have lasted between their families for generations, or the gossiping of the town. And Luca is preyed upon by the feral Wanderer, who walks the vineyards of his home.As Luca's family starts to crack at the seams, Luca and Ada have to navigate new lands and old rivalries to uncover the truths spoken as whispers on the wind.'Heavenly Creatures meets Mary Stewarts lushly scenic gothic thrillers in Dimitris eerie sophomore work of religious horror.truly spooky.plenty here to fascinate fans of cerebral horror.' Publishers Weekly'It's a ghost story and a love story, full of life and passion, and knowledge. It's a wonderful book.' Aliya Whiteley, award-winning author of The Beauty, The Loosening Skin and Skyward Inn 'Francesco Dimitri has set himself what would be a daunting challenge for any writer, and he has risen to that challenge with aplomb. The result is beautiful and life-affirming and profound, and I am more than a little in awe. Dimitri is a phenomenon. Read this book. Read it now!' A. J. Elwood, author of The Cottingley Cuckoo'Susanna Clarke meets Robert Aikman in this heady, melancholic, nuanced coming of age story. I was utterly entranced by Never the Wind.' Paul Tremblay'A coming-of-age story, a tale of old family rivalries and grudges, a supernatural mystery that the blind Luca might be more equipped to unravel than others; Never the Wind is a beguiling thing, that draws you irresistibly into its labyrinth of secrets.' Will MacLean, author of Apparition Phase'What a terrific book. I'm truly moved to see such a faithful depiction of real-life blindness in a piece of literature. But Francesco Dimitri has also painted the most wonderful, three-dimensional image of the Italian countryside on my mind's eye, and constructed a masterful tale that is at times chilling and at others cosily poignant in its sublime evocations of youth and summertimes past.' Maud Rowell, author of Blind Spot: Exploring and Educating on Blindness'This book is so good that I am speechless. Staggeringly good! An extraordinarily powerful work. Dimitri casts his net into the sea of myth, and brings up a remarkable catch. Family, friendship, horror, humor, wit and deceptionI have seldom read a book so powerful.' Ellen Kushner, author of Swordspoint'Never the Wind is a tender and magical take on all the potential and horrors of adolescence. Dimitris writing is full of wonder at the natural world, beautifully mediated through Lucas heart-rending personal circumstances, and a narrative voice full of pathos and wisdom. An utterly fresh take on the coming-of-age tale, with something deliciously awful and folkloric in the darkest possible way about the storys triumphant climax.' Ally Wilkes, author of All the White Spaces'A sensory treat! Never the Wind is richly realised, and Francesco Dimitri is a marvel.' Oliver K. Langmead, author of < Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
