Description
by Signe Pike (Author)
One of Kirkus Reviews' Best Books of 2010
"Part travel memoir, part anthropological study, [Pike] captures the hopefulness of childhood & the magic of believing." --Harper's BazaarSigne Pike left behind a career in Manhattan to undertake a magical journey in search of something to believe in again. In a sweeping tour through England, Ireland, Scotland, and beyond, she takes readers to dark glens and abandoned forests, ancient sacred sites, and local pubs, seeking those who might still believe in the mysterious beings we've relegated to the dusty corners of our childhood imaginations: Faeries. But as Signe attempts to connect with the spirit world, she'll come to view herself and the world around her in a profoundly new way. Engaging and full of heart, Faery Tale is more than a memoir--it's the story of rekindling the spark of belief that makes even the most skeptical among us feel like a kid again.
