Faerie is never as far away as you think. Sometimes you find you have crossed an invisible line and must cope, as best you can, with petulant princesses, vengeful owls, ladies who pass their time embroidering terrible fates or with endless paths in deep, dark woods and houses that never appear the same way twice. The heroines and heroes bedevilled by such problems in these fairy tales include a conceited Regency clergyman, an eighteenth-century Jewish doctor and Mary, Queen of Scots, as well as two characters from "Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell: Strange himself and the Raven King".

Following the enormous success of 2004 bestseller and critics'' favorite Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, Susanna Clarke delivers a delicious collection of ten stories set in the same fairy-crossed world of 19th-century England. With Clarke''s characteristic historical detail and diction, these dark, enchanting tales unfold in a slightly distorted version of our own world, where people are bedeviled by mischievous interventions from the fairies. With appearances from beloved characters from her novel, including Jonathan Strange and Childermass, and an entirely new spin on certain historical figures, including Mary, Queen of Scots, this is a must-have for fans of Susanna Clarke and an enticing introduction to her work for new listeners.

At the dawn of the nineteenth century, two very different magicians emerge to change England''s history. In the year 1806, with the Napoleonic Wars raging on land and sea, most people believe magic to be long dead in England-until the reclusive Mr Norrell reveals his powers, and becomes a celebrity overnight. Soon, another practicing magician comes forth: the young, handsome, and daring Jonathan Strange. He becomes Norrell''s student, and they join forces in the war against France. But Strange is increasingly drawn to the wildest, most perilous forms of magic, straining his partnership with Norrell, and putting at risk everything else he holds dear.Time Magazine #1 Book of the Year « Book Sense Book of the Year « People Top Ten Books of the Year « Winner of the Hugo Award « A New York Times Notable Book of the Year « Salon.com Top Ten of 2004 «Winner of the World Fantasy Award « Nancy Pearl''s Top 12 Books of 2004 « Washington Post Book World''s Best of 2004 « Christian Science Monitor Best Fiction 2004 « San Francisco Chronicle Best Books of 2004 « Winner of the Locus Award for Best First Novel « Chicago TribuneBest of 2004 « Seattle Times 25 Best Books of 2004 « Atlanta Journal-Constitution Top 12 Books of 2004 « Village Voice "Top Shelf" « Raleigh News & Observer Best of 2004 « Rocky Mountain Newscritics'' favorites of 2004 « Kansas City Star 100 Newsworthy Books of 2004 « Fort Worth Star-Telegram 10 Best Books of 2004 « Hartford Courant Best Books of 2004

Tähtifantasia-palkinto 2022.
Hypnoottinen ja älykäs fantasiaromaani, joka palkitsee lukijansa moninkertaisesti.
Piranesi asuu Talossa, jossa on lukematon määrä huoneita ja käytäviä, joita reunustavat tuhannet patsaat. Vuorovesi yltää portaisiin asti, pilvet liikkuvat yläkerran saleissa. Mutta Piranesia ei pelota: hän tuntee veden liikkeet ja reitit huoneiden välillä. Tiistaisin ja perjantaisin Piranesi näkee ystävänsä, mutta muuten hän on yksin. Kun liidulla piirrettyjä viestejä alkaa ilmestyä lattioihin, Piranesi varmistuu siitä, että Talossa liikkuu myös joku tai jokin muu. Mutta kuka, ja mitä hän haluaa?
”Piranesi on häikäisevä tarina yksinäisyydestä, mielikuvituksesta ja muistamisesta” (Spectator).
Susanna Clarken (s. 1959, Englanti) vuonna 2005 ilmestynyt esikoisromaani Jonathan Strange & herra Norrell sai useita palkintoja. Vaihtoehtohistorialliseen 1800-luvun Englantiin sijoittuvaa fantasiaromaania myytiin yli miljoona kappaletta. Fanien odotus palkittiin vihdoin, kun Piranesi ilmestyi Englannissa syksyllä 2020 ja sai loistavat arvostelut. Se palkittiin vuoden parhaalle suomeksi julkaistulle fantasiaromaanille myönnettävällä Tähtifantasia-palkinnolla 2022. Clarke asuu Cambridgessa puolisonsa kanssa.
