Review
Publisher's description. A story collection from the peerless, multi-award-winning Ali Smith. What do we do with books - and what do they do with us? How do books shock us, change us, challenge us, banish time while making us older, wiser and ageless all at once? And how might they remind us to pay attention to the world we make? * Penguin * Smith is dazzling in her daring. Sheer inventive power * Observer * Ali Smith is a one-off. Her imagination and originality make her one of the most exciting novelists of her generation * Daily Express * In Ali Smith we have a writer whose dazzling sophistication will surely be celebrated, studied and argues over hundreds of years after we're gone * Scotsman * Smith's world is incredibly generous - it's a place where all sorts of stories and human connections are possible * Metro *

A book by one of the UK's favourite writers about why books mean the world to usWhy are books so very powerful?What do the books we've read over our lives - our own personal libraries - make of us?What does the unravelling of our tradition of public libraries, so hard-won but now in jeopardy, say about us?The stories in Ali Smith's new collection are about what we do with books and what they do with us- how they travel with us; how they shock us, change us, challenge us, banish time while making us older, wiser and ageless all at once; how they remind us to pay attention to the world we make. Why are books so very powerful? What do the books we've read over our lives - our own personal libraries - make of us? What does the unravelling of our tradition of public libraries, so hard-won but now in jeopardy, say about us? This is about what we do with books and what they do with us: how they travel with us; how they shock us, and more.
