The Story Sisters
Written by Alice Hoffman

"When it comes to blending magic and the mundane routines of life, there's no finer writer than Alice Hoffman....The Story Sisters hearkens back to the classic fairy tale, where one must suffer fear and loss before stumbling upon a happy ending. Hoffman reminds us with every sentence that words have the power to transport us to alternate worlds, to heal a broken heart, and to tie us irrevocably to the people we love."
– Jodi Picoult, author of Handle With Care
