The Talking Horse and the Sad Girl and the Village Under the Sea - Thryft
The Talking Horse and the Sad Girl and the Village Under the Sea - Thryft

Surreal, diverse poetry from a celebrated storyteller.

If you were enchanted by the narrative magic in "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time," you'll likely appreciate how Haddon's poetry transforms the ordinary into the extraordinary. His verse walks you through a captivating landscape where humanity, dark humour, and bold surrealism blend seamlessly. The collection can mimic a comforting lullaby one moment and a clever, modern jest the next, showcasing that Haddon's literary craft extends well beyond prose.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
