Evoking the classic fantasy adventures of Joan Aiken and Eva Ibbotson, this darkly delightful new novel from New York Times best-selling author Catherine Fisher glimmers with winter magic. Orphan Seren Rhys is on her way to a new life at the remote country mansion of Plas-y Fran when she is given a package by a stranger late at night in an empty train station. The package contains a crotchety, mechanical talking crow, which Seren reluctantly brings to her new home. But when she gets there, the happy Christmas she had hoped for turns out to be an illusion—the young son of the house, Tomos, has been missing for almost a year, rumored to have been taken by the fairies. With the Crow’s reluctant help and a little winter magic, Seren sets off on a perilous journey to bring Tomos home. An enthralling story of family and belonging set in frost-bound Victorian Wales.

"The myth of Orpheus is of loss and recovery. There seems to be nothing mythic about the American protagonist, Frederic Baras, of this novella, and apparently the only traits that he shares with the Orpheus of legend are his musicianship and his roots in Thrace, northern Greece, from which his grandfather immigrated. But the Orphic element resides not in the personality of any man or woman, but in the rhythm of coming-to-be and passing-away in the kingdoms of life. The Orphic theme arises from the entangled lives of the three principal characters: Frederic Baras; Dree Vreelan, a naturalist searching for the legendary Midnight Swan, and conservationist attempting to save Oak Knoll from commercial development; and Louise Loeffler, a virtuoso pianist who shares Baras's passion for music. The time is now, the place Lost Isle University adjacent to the city of Fort Clark in the northern steppe of the United States" (from back of book)

The world's most famous choreographer becomes infatuated with a coltish young dancer who proves both siren and muse. A rising star plunges into an affair with a principal but finds that ecstasy on the stage can't be surpassed in the bed. A dying legend reflects on the evanescent beauty of a life of gesture, lost to everything but memory. Each bittersweet story plants the reader amid a cast of dancers and choreographers who struggle—valiantly, playfully, fiercely—to find in the rigorous discipline and animating beauty of ballet a counterbalance to the chaos of unscripted life. Many of the tales dare to imagine the inner lives of the century's titans—Balanchine, Fonteyn and Nureyev—which rival in emotional complexity and pathos the classic dramas they enacted onstage: La Bayadere, Don Quixote, Swan Lake. White Swan, Black Swan translates the pure and essential gestures of ballet into starkly elegant prose while showing the sweat and sex beneath the serene surface. Adrienne Sharp's debut is a bravura performance.
