What happens when the everyday meets the surreal, when the adult world of middle England meets the imagination of children?
In a series of dark and magical tales, Mick Jackson explores the possibilities, and revives the art of storytelling. From the only child who falls asleep for fifteen years, to the hermit-like Pearce sisters, who prey on the strangers on 'their beach'; and from the homemade row boat that leads one old man from his cellar to a magical cavern for the retired, to the little boy who discovers the secrets for bringing butterflies back to life, 'Ten Sorry Tales' is an exquisite collection - at turns funny, gothic, moving and sad.
