Faerie child

Strong feeling, uncompromising frankness' - Marina Warner.

After suffering the torments of miscarriage for the ninth time, Mara has become desperate for a baby of her own.

Desperate enough to try almost anything. A modern retelling of the age-old changeling myth, originally published in The Four Marys, a quartet of contemporary novellas drawing on Celtic history and folklore and exploring sometimes provocative themes of femininity and motherhood.
