- Book Synopsis
- 'Gaiman is god in the universe of story' Stephen Fry 'A perfect antidote to cynicism and a paean to the power of reading' Observer --- 'Literature does not occur in a vacuum. It cannot be a monologue. It has to be a conversation' This collection will draw you in to exchanges on making good art and Syrian refugees, the power of a single word and playing the kazoo with Stephen King, writing about books, comics and the imagination of friends, being sad at the Oscars and telling lies for a living. Here Neil Gaiman opens our minds to the people he admires and the things he believes might just mean something - and welcomes us to the conversation too. 'If this book came to you during a despairing night, by dawn, you would believe in ideas and hope and humans again' Caitlin Moran NEIL GAIMAN. WITH STORIES COME POSSIBILITIES.
