From #1 New York Times bestselling author Neil
Gaiman, an astonishing collection of short fiction that
stretches the boundaries of imagination, probes the depths of human experience,
and reveals how the ordinary and the fantastical are intertwined―one of
ten classic Gaiman works repackaged with elegant original watercolor art by
acclaimed artist Henry Sene Yee
Fragile Things showcases the distinctive storytelling genius
that has made Neil Gaiman one of the most
admired literary artists of our time. The
thirty-two gems of prose and verse in this astonishing collection stretch the
imagination and engage the intellect even as they illuminate the vagaries of
human experience. Whether he's conjuring a mysterious traveling circus,
exploring the rarefied tastes of an exclusive epicurean club, or visiting a
strangely altered Victorian England, Gaiman reveals how the ordinary and
the fantastical are transmutable and intertwined.
With breathtaking clarity, Fragile
Things illumines Gaiman's brilliance as well as his terrifyingly
entertaining dark sense of humor. By turns delightful, disturbing, and
diverting, this volume is a gift of enchantments that will startle the senses
and stir the soul.
