Inspired by the poem by W.B. Yeats about the common folk legend of the fairy changelings, this is a truly original adult fantasy. 'Sparklingly quirky...wistfully elegiac... Overall it is a gently redemptive parable about becoming oneself.' "Scotland On Sunday"
Synopsis
Henry Day is kidnapped by fairy changelings near his home. They give Henry a new name, Aniday. The group has left another child in Henry's place. This changeling boy, morphed into Henry's duplicate, must hide his true identity from the Day family. Both Henry and Aniday search obsessively for who they were before they changed places in the world.
