Description
The Broken Mirror A Fable by Jonathan Coe is a thought-provoking tale that explores the power of desire and reality. When Claire discovers a broken mirror in the dump behind her house, she finds it has the ability to transform even the most mundane world into a fairy-tale one.
As Claire grows older, she uses the mirror to see a more perfect version of herself and her town, but these illusions come with a cost. The line between reality and fantasy begins to blur, and Claire must confront the consequences of her desires. A mysterious stranger named Peter joins her on a journey to uncover the truth about the broken mirror.
This fable for all ages is both a contemporary fairytale for adults and a political parable for children. It has been previously published in Italian, French, Greek and Dutch, and is now available in English for the first time.
