Five stories from a time long passed speak of freedom, love, and an ancient magic.
Acclaimed author of gay fiction, M. King, presents a collection of stories inspired by Romany folklore. Each tale follows a young man tested by a strange, often supernatural world, where only love can redeem him.
Intricate and lushly told, Travellers’ Tales draws on a rich heritage of stories from England, Wales, and Eastern Europe. Harking back to the early years of the twentieth century, each story has its own distinctive flavour, and each weaves a different picture of a lost way of life, albeit with a very untraditional twist.
