In Margate by Lunchtime by Maggie Harris
In Margate by Lunchtime brings more stories from Maggie Harris's adopted home of Kent. Set in the seaside towns of Thanet, the exotic creatures that inhabit these tales - flamingos, parakeets, a mermaid on a Vespa - are like the human migrants, sometimes shining, more often trying to find their place in an unwelcoming environment. Expect more of the magic that Harris weaved in her debut story collection, Canterbury Tales on a Cockcrow Morning.
