A quick post to say there is a new collection of stories out from the British Library Women Writers series, and it’s perfect for Secret Santa, stockings, or any festive gift: Stories for Winter and Nights by the Fire.
A lot of people enjoyed the Christmas collection last year – I think this is even better. The standard is really high, with well-known authors like Katherine Mansfield, Shirley Jackson, Sylvia Townsend Warner, Elizabeth Taylor, and Angela Carter represented – along with new discoveries.
Not many of the stories were suggested by me, so I can’t take credit for what a good selection it is. But it means I can unabashedly advocate that you buy this and enjoy a night by the fire with it!
It’s a stellar collection – my review is up tomorrow! :D
thank you!
I have Stories for Christmas and the Festive Season out from the library to read over the holidays :)
Brilliant!
