In the Wild Wood
In the Wild Wood | Frances Gapper
1 post | 1 read | 1 to read
To walk In the Wild Wood is to enter worlds where the mundane is made magical. Loss of memory and self are rendered in dreamlike stories that owe as much to the lived experience of dementia as to fairy tale. In other tales, we learn of Sister Joy's obsession with spiders, or a funeral parlour worker who collects false teeth from the dead. Poignant, funny and astonishing, this collection showcases Frances Gapper as a storyteller working at the peak of her craft.

In the Wild Wood | Frances Gapper

Snacking on this book from @culturedllama by Frances Gapper, who is a whimsical, subtle writer, as you can see from the excerpts. But what I like about her stories is that they can be gossamer-bright and fragile, but often carry a steely strength.

RaimeyGallant Woohoo! Everyone please follow and welcome my author friend Damyanti. I promise she'll follow back (or I'll kick her butt;) #LitsyWelcomeWagon 7y
