The reader is invited into a world of lost libraries and locked gardens, of marshlands where the drowned dead live and a city where all the clocks have stopped; students hone their skills at puppet school, the Homely Wench Society commits a guerrilla book-swap, and lovers exchange books and roses on St Jordi's Day. It is a collection of towering imagination, marked by baroque beauty and a deep sensuousness.]]></description><link>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S30C3170216</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S30C3170216</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Oyeyemi, Helen]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 31 Jan 2016 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3170216030</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle>Stories</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780698407879/MC.GIF&amp;client=sepup&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[What Is Not Yours Is Not Yours]]></title><description><![CDATA[Playful, ambitious, and exquisitely imagined, this story collection is cleverly built around the idea of keys, literal and metaphorical.

Playful, ambitious, and exquisitely imagined, What Is Not Yours Is Not Yours is cleverly built around the idea of keys, literal and metaphorical. The key to a house, the key to a heart, the key to a secret-Oyeyemi's keys not only unlock elements of her characters' lives, they promise further labyrinths on the other side. In "Books and Roses" one special key opens a library, a garden, and clues to at least two lovers' fates. In "Is Your Blood as Red as This?" an unlikely key opens the heart of a student at a puppeteering school. "'Sorry' Doesn't Sweeten Her Tea" involves a "house of locks," where doors can be closed only with a key-with surprising, unobservable developments. And in "If a Book Is Locked There's Probably a Good Reason for That Don't You Think," a key keeps a mystical diary locked (for good reason). Oyeyemi's creative vision and storytelling are effervescent, wise, and insightful, and her tales span multiple times and landscapes as they tease boundaries between coexisting realities. Is a key a gate, a gift, or an invitation? What Is Not Yours Is Not Yours captivates as it explores the many possible answers.]]></description><link>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S30C3550819</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S30C3550819</guid><category><![CDATA[EAUDIOBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Oyeyemi, Helen]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 31 Jan 2016 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://seattle.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3550819030</comments><format>EAUDIOBOOK</format><subtitle>Stories</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781501905223/MC.GIF&amp;client=sepup&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item></channel></rss>
