'Discovering Eva Ibbotson's books is one of the nicest things that's ever happened to me. The most beautiful, delicious, wry read' - Marian Keyes

A collection of eighteen romantic historical short stories from the award-winning and much-loved Eva Ibbotson. With atmospheric settings ranging from Vienna to Northumberland, A Glove Shop in Vienna explores the great passions and astute observations of everyday life.

Join Great-Uncle Max, torn between his grand and secret love for Susie, the enchanting glove shop assistant, and the devotion of his opera-singing wife.

Meet Miss Bennett, drama mistress at the fading Markham Street Primary School, whose search for a baby Jesus for the nativity play yields unexpected and miraculous results.

Agonize with Kira, a dancer in Russia's Imperial Ballet school, thrown out onto the streets of St. Petersburg, and found by Edwin, a lonely dreamer.
