In a few words
A collection of stories featuring the characters from The Crimson Petal and the White, Michel Faber’s 150,000 copy-selling masterpiece
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.
Faber remains an unrivalled master of his subject.

Sunday TelegraphMore about
the book
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.
Michel Faber is a master of the short-story form.
