100 reviewsFrom award-winning novelist Jonathan Coe & distinguished Italian artist Chiara Coccorese comes The Broken Mirror, a political parable for children, a contemporary fairy tale for adults, & a fable for all ages.
One day Claire, to escape her quarrelsome parents, takes refuge in the dump behind her house. There she finds a broken mirror, a nasty piece of sharp glass… yet she is strangely drawn to it. She soon discovers it has the power to transform even the most drab reality into a fairy-tale world: the grey sky is reflected blue, & Claire’s modest, suburban house is transformed into the most beautiful castle.
As Claire grows older, always accompanied by her magic mirror, she can see her face without her teenage acne, & her town before it fell victim to thieving property developers. But, in reality, libraries are being turned into luxury flats wherever she looks, & the boy Claire loves is instead her worst enemy.
Frustrated and angry with the mirror’s illusions, Claire is about to destroy it when the mysterious Peter steps in: he has also found a shard of broken mirror, and so begins their journey to piece together the larger puzzle…
Previously published in Italian, French, Greek & Dutch, The Broken Mirror comes to life in English for the first time, to be read with equal pleasure by children & adults.
