Description:
A.S. Byatt's fairy tales and fables are among the best-loved features of her fiction. This volume contains "The Glass Coffin" and "Gode's Tale" of the Breton Baie des Trepasses, together with three other stories with medieval and oriental settings, including the title tale.
Synopsis:
A S Byatt's fairy tales and fables are among the best-loved features of her fiction. Innumerable readers have asked for the two marvellous fairy tales in POSSESSION - 'The Glass Coffin' and 'Gode's Tale' of the Breton Naie des Trepasses - to be published seperately. Here they take their place with three other stories with medieval and oriental settings. The title story, 'The Djinn and the Nightingale's Eye', a long story about an Englishwoman in Turkey who unwittingly releases a genie from his bottle, is a reflection on women's lives, on magic and on the power of storytelling itself.
