Bloomsbury presents The Wood at Midwinter, written and read by Susanna Clarke.

Nominated for Best Audiobook: Fiction at The Speakies (The British Audio Awards)

Experience the magic of The Wood at Midwinter, a captivating Christmas short story written and read by Susanna Clarke, internationally bestselling author of Piranesi and Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell. Immerse yourself in this haunting tale, accompanied by exquisite music composed by Rusty Bradshaw.

‘A church is a sort of wood. A wood is a sort of church. They’re the same thing really.’

Nineteen-year-old Merowdis Scot is an unusual girl. She can talk to animals and trees—and she is only ever happy when she is walking in the woods.

One snowy afternoon, out with her dogs and Apple the pig, Merowdis encounters a blackbird and a fox. As darkness falls, a strange figure enters in their midst—and the path of her life is changed forever.

Featuring an afterword by Susanna Clarke explaining how she came to write it, this is a mesmerizing, must-have addition to any fantasy reader's library.©2022 Susanna Clarke (P)2024 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

批評家のレビュー

Clarke’s imagination is prodigious, her pacing is masterly and she knows how to employ dry humor in the service of majesty.
Nobody writes about magic the way Clarke does . . . She writes about magic as if she’s actually worked it.
[Clarke is] one of the greatest novelists writing today.
There are traces of the Grimm Brothers’ eerie atmosphere and A.A. Milne’s ironic humor.
Susanna Clarke's spellbinding performance of this enhanced audiobook brings out the alluring beauty of this mystical tale.
This is an amuse-bouche of a short story, the perfect bite of everything Clarke does best, wrapped in gorgeous illustrations by Victoria Sawdon . . . Glorious.
A lovely fable . . . the narrative voice echoes the storytelling cadences of writers from Andrew Lang to C.S. Lewis . . . Charming.
Highly atmospheric, this winter tale is set in a wood and navigates the line between a Grimms’ fairy tale and a feminist manifesto . . . Clarke’s many fans will not be disappointed.
Hugo Award winner Clarke enchants with this bite-size Christmassy fairy tale . . . The juxtaposition of thoughtful and sometimes unsettling atmospherics with quirky enjoyment delights. This is an ideal stocking stuffer.
A made-for-gifting book.
As beloved fantasy writer Clarke's atmospheric and gently funny fable about the holiness of nature, so gracefully illustrated by Victoria Sawdon, unfurls, Merowdis experiences a transformative encounter.
This beautiful illustrated short story by the author of Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell is a meditation on nature, magic, and the strange liminal spaces of childhood. It’s a perfect book to read as the seasons change and would make a gorgeous holiday gift. Recommended for fans of Over the Garden Wall, The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse, and anyone who just can’t get enough of Clarke’s ethereal writing.
Beloved fantasy author Susanna Clarke welcomes the darkening season and its festivities with . . . a bewitching fairy tale . . . This kindhearted legend features lavish illustrations by Victoria Sawdon and comes bound in rich violet cover art inlaid with gold foil detail.
