Description

‘A book of innocence and bawdiness, fury and joy…needs to be read and re-read’ The Times

On the banks of the Thames a baby is found floating. Rescued by the Dog-Woman, a giant strong enough to fling an elephant into the air, their lives together will take them on a dizzying journey through space and time.

As past and present collapse and centuries overlap, love, sex, truth, lies and twelve dancing princesses take centre stage.

‘Entrancing…fabulous… Its language retains the clear music of poetry’ Sunday Telegraph

‘Simple prose shows the subtlest of minds behind it, swift, confident and dazzling’ Financial Times

‘Her stories and characters levitate off the page into dancing life… A bold, bizarre and timely book’ Independent
