The ingenious storyteller Edward Carey returns to reimagine a time-honored fable: the story of an impatient father, a rebellious son, and a watery path to forgiveness for the young man known as Pinocchio. With all the charm, atmosphere, and emotional depth for which Edward Carey is known - and featuring his trademark fantastical illustrations - The Swallowed Man is a parable of parenthood, loss, and letting go.
For fans if Neil Gaiman and Tim Burton - from the author of "Little".
