There are sentences in The Bloody Chamber that I read over and over thinking how did she do that? Her writing is stunning. <br /><br />And I hope your boys are suitably spooked by the story at Hallowe'en!Claire Deanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12466995265143493376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6110693669226983929.post-48781181314349486092010-10-08T15:09:48.577+01:002010-10-08T15:09:48.577+01:00Congratulations, Claire! Well deserved indeed.
Gr...Congratulations, Claire! Well deserved indeed.<br />Great to hear your selections. The Angela Carter quote is brilliant. I've been re-reading "The Bloody Chamber" recently and am in awe of that woman. Thank you for the lead on "The Buried Moon" which I wasn't familiar with. I'm still getting used to the fact that here in Bavaria, our home of a couple of years, they don't do Hallowe'en, so we've been wanting to start some in-house traditions with our boys. This story will certainly be read by Jack-o'-lantern this year.Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01674923395134039554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6110693669226983929.post-66528408012249793872010-10-07T21:43:44.174+01:002010-10-07T21:43:44.174+01:00Katherine R - you're welcome.

Thank you for setting up such a lovely award!<br /><br />Daria - thank you and congratulations to you too!<br /><br />asakiyume (and Katherine!) - I really enjoyed Troll Fell, I loved the way all the Scandinavian folklore fed into it, I haven't got the other two yet so I might wait for that omnibus and then I'll have it to read to my sons when they're big enough! Hope you enjoy them too. <br /><br />Katherine L - yes, I think it must have been Jacobs who changed the Dead to Buried in the title (it is The Dead Moon in Legends of the Lincolnshire Cars). I first came across a retelling of Jacobs' version in a book of moon tales. What a wonderful tale to tell at Hallowe'en!Claire Deanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12466995265143493376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6110693669226983929.post-63735011436121441412010-10-07T19:12:54.384+01:002010-10-07T19:12:54.384+01:00Claire, this is brilliant - I read your post going...Claire, this is brilliant - I read your post going, 'yes - yes - YES!' And The Buried Moon - I knew it as The Dead Moon and used to tell it in schools at Hallowe'en! A wonderful, poetical, spooky tale...<br /><br />(All I can say, asakiyume, is I hope you'll like the troll books - they improve as they go, I think. The first one was my first novel. I've recently had the interesting experience of abridging it for an omnibus version of all three to come out next year, and I think the cuts have improved it!)Katherine Langrishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12529700103932422873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6110693669226983929.post-21602082083134403822010-10-07T17:47:18.006+01:002010-10-07T17:47:18.006+01:00I have her troll books!

And there’s an audio recording of him reading it <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Neil+Gaiman/_/Troll+Bridge" rel="nofollow">here</a> (click on ‘Play direct from Neil Gaiman’ to listen online for free).<br /><br />I’ve read the first of Katherine Langrish’s <a href="http://www.katherinelangrish.co.uk/trollfell.php" rel="nofollow">troll books</a> too, and that’s fantastic!Claire Deanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12466995265143493376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6110693669226983929.post-30275816861788939322010-10-07T08:18:15.785+01:002010-10-07T08:18:15.785+01:00I think you might very much like "Turnipseed&...I think you might very much like <a href="http://www.fantasy-magazine.com/2008/03/turnipseed/" rel="nofollow">"Turnipseed"</a>, a sort of "Three Trolls Gruff" story by Erik Amundsen :-)<br /><br />I *loved* that retelling of Mossycoat you linked to the other day.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
