Genevieve grows up in the orbit of her grandmother Zofia, whose stories—of a vanished country, of long-remembered histories, of fantastic creatures contained within a vast handbag—hover between affectionate eccentricity and unsettling truth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a story about the ways we carry the past with us: in objects, in memory, in the echo of voices we thought we’d lost. It draws readers into a world that is at once playful and poignant, where the rules of reality bend and the heart’s deepest longings ripple with enchantment. Playful and piercing in equal measure, the story asks what it costs to doubt the stories we are given—and what it costs to believe them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Faery Handbag was the 2005 winner of the Hugo Award, Nebula Award, and Locus Award for Best Novelette.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Faery Handbag \u003c\/em\u003eby Kelly Link is a limited edition of 500 unnumbered copies, letterpress printed by \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.nomadletterpress.com\/\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.handandeye.co.uk\/\"\u003eHand \u0026amp; Eye Letterpress\u003c\/a\u003e in England on mould-made Somerset Book Soft White 115gsm paper.
