Truly Untrue Stories: Illustrated Short Stories from France, Malta and Beyond (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798467018423)

Truly Untrue Stories is an anthology of over twenty illustrated short stories from France, Malta and beyond. As the title implies these tales will leave you asking if they are fact or fiction. Do octopuses really come from another planet? What happens when hair removal cream and oestrogen are used to help a long-suffering wife? Can a stint in jail reinvigorate a dying art form? Who is master of the Valley of Honey? Voices calling out from the past; the saga of an enslaved boy seeking his return to his island home of Gozo. A mysterious woman who claims to be the Ice Queen seeks freedom through blood oranges. A woman loses the age-old battle against giant reeds. Mushroom hunting is a dangerous profession. An artist bargains his way into a new town. A final bus journey to Golden Bay. A Sodom and Gomorrah tale of a French village. An Aesopian cautionary fable of climate change. A rhyme about time. These collections of stories, in conjunction with beautifully hand drawn illustrations, depict something beyond what is true.
