Sinopsis:
THE GORGEOUSLY EVOCATIVE SCOTTISH WATERSTONES BOOK OF THE MONTH
'Captivating, moving and profound' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Rebecca hasn't seen her father Leo since she was six. Her family never talk about him, and she has long since pushed him to the back of her mind.
But when a journalist turns up asking strange questions, Rebecca starts to wonder whether there is more to Leo's absence than she realised. Looking for answers, she unearths a book of fairy tales written by Leo and dedicated to her.
Tentatively, Rebecca tries to piece together her father's life, and her mind keeps returning to the magical, melancholic fairy tales, which seem to contain more truth than make-believe. Are they key to unlocking the mystery of her father, the lost storyteller? Could they reveal who he was, what he went through - and even where he might be now...?
THE LOST STORYTELLER celebrates the power and resilience of imagination.
'Absolutely beautiful . . . A cleverly wrought tale of fathers and daughters, and a bond buried so deep that it is lost to folklore' Polly Crosby, author of The Illustrated Child
'Captivating, moving and profound. I loved it! A spellbinding novel about the power of the stories we tell both to ourselves and to others' Tracey Emerson, author of She Chose Me
'Incredibly moving . . . A genuinely beautiful must-read' Buki Papillon, author of An Ordinary Wonder
