For years Jeanette Winterson has loved writing a new story at Christmastime, and here she brings together twelve of her brilliantly imaginative, funny, and bold tales.

For the Twelve Days of Christmas—a time of celebration, sharing, and giving—she offers these twelve plus one: a personal story of her own Christmas memories.

These tales open a portal into the spirit of the season, when time slows down and magic starts to happen. From trees with mysterious powers to a tinsel baby that talks, philosophical fairies to flying dogs, a haunted house to a disappearing train, Winterson’s innovative stories encompass the childlike and spooky wonder of Christmas, perfect for listening to by the fire with loved ones or while traveling home for the holidays.

Enjoy the season of peace and goodwill, mystery, and a little bit of magic courtesy of one of our most fearless and accomplished writers.

Reviews

“Savor the season’s tales of ghosts, ‘magical interventions, ordinary encounters that turn out to be not ordinary at all, small miracles, and salutes to the coming of the light.’”

“Award-winning author Winterson’s celebration of the twelve days of Christmas is a surprising and cheering addition to her work…A delectable read for long winter nights.”

“Dark, otherworldly, and (trademark Winterson) wickedly funny…[A] holiday treasure…to be pulled out on a December night, fireside, and read aloud.”

“Winterson has presented us with unexpected holiday cheer…Perfect for stuffing the stockings of your eccentric relatives…The magical tales are all exuberant.”

“Magic…Leave politics at the door, watch Elf for the tenth time, and begin the tradition of reading Christmas Days—to yourself, to your loved ones.”

“Spooky, inventive, funny…Winterson’s mixed bag of fictional treats has a nineteenth-century charm much needed in the grim twenty-first.”

“Spooky, clever, funny, and poignant, Winterson’s supernatural tales refresh our appreciation of what it truly means to give, to love, and to share joy.”
