From amazon.com:

With language as dazzling as the wondrous visionary landscapes they evoke, these seventeen works transport the reader to worlds in which sleep is illegal, the lives of lonely department store clerks are transformed by fairies, the rich wear coal jewelry on an island of diamonds, and the living laminate their dead. Here is a universe where rooms go missing, women give birth to their lovers, and the young contemplate God's creative powers through pet tortoises.

Tarjolle iltapäivän Deliberi K7:n miittiin! / Winterson's book will be available at the BC meet-up this afternoon!

Kiitokset miittiseurasta ja kirjasta, Tarya!

I got this book from erpax to be delivered to our BC meetings, will do that soon.

Taken from Sastamala meet-up. I may have read this before but am not 100% sure, so we'll see.

Read about half the stories but nothing in this book made any sense to me, so I'm giving up...
