Strange Ways Stories

Regular price £25.00 Sale price £25.00

Strange Ways Stories are written and illustrated by artist and storyteller Myrna Shoa. The 4 stories - The Sofa , The Marriage, The Box of Chocolates and Rosie and the Iron Bar - are tales passed down through the generations about a family of immigrants living in Manchester in the early part of the last century. Grandfather Meyer and his family fled their native Dvinsk in Russia to begin a new life in Manchester. These tales of life in and around the Strangeways area present a cast of colourful characters, stunningly brought to life by Myrna's artistry. Printed in full colour.

Your stories speak the truth

Your stories speak the truth about your family. In our cultures we hide the truth. I thank you for sharing the stories.

The title intrigued me

I have just received the set of the four books. The illustrations and the stories triggered off memories from my childhood. The stories are short but say a lot in a few words. I think these books will make good presents as they can be used as a starting point for conversations.
