Short stories with a seasonal sparkle It's the most wonderful time of the year... in theory. Mo brings you a second collection of short stories - this time set around Christmas and offering a uniquely dark view of the holiday season. You'll meet families intent on keeping up appearances, puppy-dog presents, and a woman whose private life becomes less than private. Sometimes bitter, often sweet. 'Five Gold Rings' is the perfect antidote to a lockdown Christmas and Zoom Monopoly. From the stress of keeping up with the Denby-Smyths to full-on hostilities (briefly) set aside, Mo gives you his very special look at Christmas.There's even one story suitable for the kiddies. Sort of.
Autorenporträt
Writer Mo Fanning grew up near Birmingham in the UK but left for pastures new as soon as he could legally drive, spending much of his grown-up life in the Netherlands, before returning home just before lockdown took hold. He has contributed to 100 Stories for Haiti and written for the Observer travel section. His first novel 'The Armchair Bride' was nominated for Arts Council Book of the Year, and his work was turned into a short play for BBC America. 'Rebuilding Alexandra Small' climbed the best selling lists in the UK, Canada and Australia.
