Fragile Things: Short Fictions and Wonders

by Neil Gaiman

Description

From the author of American Gods comes a masterful collection of short fiction that blurs the boundaries between wonder and terror. Fragile Things gathers Neil Gaiman's most captivating tales—including a mysterious circus that vanishes with a spectator in tow, a chilling novella featuring Shadow Moon trapped in a deadly game, and a Hugo Award-winning reimagining of Sherlock Holmes in an unsettling alternate Victorian England. Each story showcases Gaiman's signature blend of dark humor, imaginative world-building, and the uncanny, ranging from gothic nightmares to unexpected encounters that transform ordinary moments into something unforgettable. Whether exploring the sinister desires of an exclusive dining club or the supernatural dangers lurking at a teenage party, these tales prove why Gaiman stands among the most inventive voices in contemporary fiction. Fragile Things is a collection that delights, disturbs, and enchants in equal measure.
