The Apple by Michel Faber (eBook ISBN 9781847674036) book cover

Available as eBook

A collection of stories featuring the characters from The Crimson Petal and the White, Michel Faber’s 150,000 copy-selling masterpiece

The Crimson Petal and the White is one of the best-loved novels of recent years. Now a major BBC TV drama, it captured hearts and left readers desperate for more. In The Apple, Faber returns to Silver Street to find it still teeming with life, and conjures further tantalising glimpses of Sugar, Clara, Mr Bodley and many other favourites.


“This book will be read in a sitting. unless of course you are admitted to Accident and Emergency, having come over queer, huffing with laughter, or dizzy with envy at Faber’s talent. Or probably both.”
