About this product

Product Information

--Irish Book of the Year Finalist! --An Amazon Best Books of the Year So Far pick! "Wildly funny." --THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW "Inventive, funny and, ultimately, moving." -- Claire Kilroy, THE GUARDIAN Vivian doesn't feel like she fits in--and never has. As a child, she was so whimsical that her parents told her she was "left by fairies." Now, living alone in Dublin, she finds herself without a friend in the world. So, she decides it's time to change her life: She begins by advertising for a friend. Not just any friend. She wants one named Penelope. Meanwhile, Vivian roams the city, mapping out a new neighborhood every day, seeking her escape route to a better world, the other world her parents told her she came from. And then one day someone named Penelope answers her ad for a friend. And from that moment on, Vivian's life begins to change. Debut author Caitriona Lally offers readers an exhilaratingly fresh take on the Irish love for lyricism, humor, and inventive wordplay in a book that is, in itself, deeply charming, and deeply moving.

"This urban fairy tale delivers something that is both subtle and profound in its examination of the human soul. Magically delicious." -- Kirkus Reviews "A whimsical jaunt through Dublin and a modern take on many old Irish folktales...Humorous, charming, and original." -- Booklist "Inventive, funny and, ultimately, moving." -- Claire Kilroy, The Guardian   "Full of action and humour as its beguiling narrator takes her surreal jaunts around the capital in search of a portal to another world. ...The black comedy gives the book a jaunty quality that complements the dazzling trip around Dublin." -- Sarah Gilmartin, The Irish Times "Delightfully quirky... Vivian's voice alone is enough to keep us reading, charmed by her unique brand of manic, word-hoarding wit." -- The Irish Independent  "The book's style calls to mind The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time by Mark Haddon.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
