He certainly never meant for her to fall off the rope swing and break her arm. When he gets blamed for the accident, Hex runs deep into the woods, ending up in a strange clearing that he has never come across before. There he meets an old woman who offers him a deal. She'll rid the world of those who wronged him and Hex can carry on his life with them all forgotten and as if nothing ever happened. But what Hex doesn't know is someone else has been offered the same deal. When Tommo wakes up the next day, he is in a completely different world, with only the vaguest memories of the world before. Can Tommo put the world right again? Back to how it was? Or can he even find a way to make a new world that could be better for them all?This is a gripping and surreal contemporary fairytale that fans of David Almond will love.

Notă biografică

A.F. Harrold is an English poet who spends his time onstage, writing poems and books, and stroking his beard (it helps churn the ideas). He is the author of The Song from Somewhere Else (illustrated by Levi Pinfold), the Fizzlebert Stump series and the CILIP Carnegie and Kate Greenaway Medal longlisted The Imaginary (illustrated by Emily Gravett). He lives in Reading with a stand-up comedian and two cats. Levi Pinfold has been drawing from imagination for as long as he can remember. His published picture books are The Django, Black Dog and Greenling. Black Dog won the prestigious CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal in 2013. Born in the Forest of Dean, he has somehow found himself living in northern NSW, Australia. He likes paintings, books, music and some cats.

Recenzii

A 'what if' story about alternative versions of lives, and the consequences of our actions. Levi Pinfold adds dark, realist, atmospheric illustrations that heighten the drama
A beautifully written dark and twisty book which lingers long after the final page has been turned. Levi Pinfold's haunting illustrations add to the magic
Yet again A.F Harrold and Levi Pinfold have produced a near-perfect work of art. Harrold's words bring wit and wonder together, and their spirit is beautifully caught by Pinfold's images
A.F. Harold is an astonishing writer and this story of lost and found friendships is brimming over with dark imagination and magical storytelling. No one will be able to forget spending time in his world
A dark and intriguing mystery, full of Pinfold's breath-taking artwork
Broodingly atmospheric . A fantasy blending the strange and the everyday
Luxuriantly illustrated by the fabulous Levi Pinfold. This exceptional book about friendship and paths not taken should rake in awards
This spellbinding story asks what you would do if you could rewrite history and wipe clean everyone's memory of events - and even of people. This is the dilemma confronting troubled Hex when a menacing old woman offers to 'disappear' those who accuse him of causing an accident. Beautifully written and illustrated, this is poignant, dark and thought-­provoking
With darkly beautiful monochrome illustrations by Levi Pinfold, this is a story about best friends Hex and Tommo who find themselves caught up in a bargain that changes their world. With classic Grimm-esque fairytale vibes, this is a Stranger Things style tale that's utterly spellbinding
Extraordinary . as moving, strange and profound as Skellig
Poet A.F. Harrold's The Worlds We Leave Behind (Bloomsbury) - a contemporary fairytale about accidents, decisions and alternate realities - was dizzying in its scope. Levi Pinfold's sensationally dark, atmospheric illustrations only amplified
An impeccably crafted, cerebral fantasy
