Crocodiles

CrocodilesT01671912463
Witches are burnt in the town centre. Crocodiles lurk in the shallows. Boys who go to the big city are skinned alive by roving tramps. Cornelia's older son, Rudolph, must give up Punch and Judy to work in the local Smarties-tubes factory. Matilda, his wife, is secretly finishing her first romantic novel. Lucy, their two-year-old, can tell the future. But when Cornelia's younger son, Vincent returns from his glitzy television job in the big city, the stories that once held the Glass family together are in danger of smashing them to smithereens. Crocodiles brings to life a dystopian, modern-fairy-tale town where fact and fiction weave as tightly and snag as easily as Cornelia's knitting.
