In the tradition of Angela Carter, this luminous, spellbinding debut reinvents the stuff of myth. Straying husbands lured into the sea by mermaids can be fetched back, for a fee. Trees can make wishes come true. Houses creak and keep a fretful watch on their inhabitants, straightening shower curtains and worrying about frayed carpets. A mother, who seems alone and lonely, may be rubbing sore muscles or holding the hands of her invisible lover as he touches her neck. Phantom hounds roam the moors and, on a windy beach, a boy and his grandmother beat back despair with an old white door. In these stories, the line between the real and the imagined is blurred as Lucy Wood takes us to Cornwall's ancient coast, building on its rich storytelling history and recasting its myths in thoroughly contemporary ways. Calling forth the fantastic and fantastical, she mines these legends for that bit of magic remaining in all our lives--if only we can let ourselves see it.Binding Type: Paperback

Compact, comes with a brush to clean, quality stainless steel
I compared several options, examined many images, and read numerous reviews. The thickness and quality of the stainless steel are excellent. The handle is sturdy and strong, making it a reliable choice. Its compact design is a great advantage for travel. It is easy to use, and the coffee tastes great. Additionally, it cleans easily and offers very good value for the money. and offers very good value for the money.

Perfect Compact Coffee Grinder
This grinder is great for making one or two cups worth of coffee. The coarseness adjustment is easy and reliable and produces perfectly ground coffee for a French Press. The ceramic burrs work very well and do not heat up like metal burrs. The grinder is easily disassembled for cleaning. I'm ordering a second grinder to keep with my camping equipment. I highly recommend this grinder.

A worthy product.
This is a great little grinder. I roast my own beans, grind normally with an electric, and brew with Aeropress. This is for travel.... Light, compact, not used everyday, and easy to clean. Works just as expected. My only less than 5 stars comment is absent guidance on reassembly after cleaning and a washer fell out. Customer support was 5 star in guiding me. Well done Simcoker!
