Each of the twenty-two tales in this enchanting collection is a
surprise and a delight, melding the poignant and the possible with
the outrageous, the magical, and, sometimes, the eerily haunting.
Wolf men, dolphin women, defiant old ladies, and middle-aged
manufacturers of erotic leatherwear -- in Jigs & Reels the
miraculous goes hand in hand with the mundane, the sour with the
sweet, and the beautiful, the grotesque, the seductive, and the
disturbing are never more than one step away. Whether she's
exploring the myth of beauty, the pain of infidelity, or the wonder
of late-life romance, Joanne Harris once again proves herself a
master of the storyteller's trade.
