JEANETTE WINTERSON – Christmas Days
Everybody loves a Christmas story. The tradition of the Twelve Days of
Christmas is a tradition of celebration, sharing and giving. And what
better way to do that than with a story?
Read these stories by
the fire, in the snow, travelling home for the holidays. Give them to
friends, wrap them up for someone you love, read them aloud, read them
alone, read them together. Enjoy the season of peace and goodwill,
mystery, and a little bit of magic.
There are ghosts here and jovial spirits. Chances at love and tricks with time.
There
is frost and icicles, mistletoe and sledges. There’s a cat and a dog
and a solid silver frog. There’s a Christmas cracker with a surprising
gift inside.
There’s a haunted house and a SnowMama. There are Yuletides and holly wreaths. Three Kings. And a merry little Christmas time.
And
for the icing on the Christmas cake, there are twelve festive recipes
from Yuletides past and present. Red cabbage, gravlax, turkey biryani,
sherry trifle, Mrs Winterson’s mince pies and more.
Beautifully illustrated by Katie Scott and designed within CMYK, Christmas Days is the perfect festive gift.
