Description

Shortlisted for the 2022 Booker Prize An extraordinary playful moving and wholly remarkable (The Guardian) coming-of-age novel filled with myth and magic from one of Englands greatest living writers.An introspective young boy Joseph Coppock is trying to make sense of the world. Living alone in an old house he spends his time reading comic books collecting birds eggs and playing with marbles. When one day a rag-and-bone man called Treacle Walker appears on a horse and cart offering a cure-all medicine a mysterious friendship develops and the young boy is introduced to a world beyond his wildest imagination. Luminous evocative and sparely told Treacle Walker is a stunning fusion of myth folklore and the stories we tell ourselves.
