A Snow Garden and Other Stories

The perfect gift: a collection of six Christmas stories from the author of The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry & The Love Song of Miss Queenie Hennessy.

Â Â Â Â Â Six stories to span the Christmas holidays:

Â Â Â Â Â A Faraway Smell of Lemon: The School Term has ended. It is almost Christmas but Binny, out last-minute shopping couldn't feel less like wishing glad tidings to all men. Ducking out of the rain she finds herself in the sort of shop she would never normally visit.

Â Â Â Â Â The Marriage Manual: Christmas Eve. Two parents endeavour to construct their son's Christmas present from a DIY kit and in the process find themselves deconstructing their marriage.

Â Â Â Â Â Christmas at the Airport: A glitch in the system, travellers stranded and all sorts of lives colliding in the face of a sudden birth...

Â Â Â Â Â The Boxing Day Ball: Maureen has never been out with the local girls before. Who knew that a disco in the Village Hall could be life-changing?

Â Â Â Â Â A Snow Garden: Two little boys, dumped with their divorced father for his share of the Christmas holidays and none of them with a clue how to enjoy it.

Â Â Â Â Â New Year's Day: As if Christmas wasn't wearing enough, now his elderly parent is asking for a hole in the ground... Father and son break old habits and plant a tree to mark the start of the new year.

Â Â Â Â Â Six stories as funny, joyous, poignant and memorable as Christmas should be.
