Throughout the stories the reader is introduced to a variety of characters, from a man who spends the night in a Hospice to a German aristocrat and a woman who sees an image of her own soul. There is also a nod to the conventional vampire story ('Pages from a Young Girl's Journal') but all the stories remain unconventional and inconclusive, which perhaps makes them all the more startling and intriguing.","brand":"Faber and Faber","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42533728485437,"sku":"9780571311743","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/0838\/9949\/files\/9780571311743_p0.jpg?v=1771569165","url":"https:\/\/www.tatteredcover.mom\/products\/9780571311743","provider":"Tattered Cover","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
