Nature's Magician

"Nature's Magician" is a specially commissioned collection which seeks to ask the simplest of questions. Why does ice float? When do birds sing? What do children dream of? These ten stories touch on the beautiful innocence of youth, the spellbinding tension of friendship and the dynamic nature of love. With fiction, as with magic, anything can happen.Anthony Cropper writes with the precision of Raymond Carver, the clarity of Amy Hempel and the ambition of Richard Brautigan. The deceptive ease of his storytelling reveals one of the most accomplished short story writers of the day.
