Story-telling has often been associated with weaving and spinning. All is craft, cleverness and magic.Here indeed we have a colourful mix of beautifully crafted stories. Some are sad and others bring us hope. There are tensions in relationships, fear of the unknown coupled with surprising empathy, and accidents of birth. Death wishes are reversed, sometimes but not always, and so are lives in other realties. People's stories intersect as they wait for a bus. An old cello causes havoc. A church clock always strikes twice... or does it? Match-making goes wrong until it goes right. And so much more.Sally Zigmond brings an evocative literary voice to tales in The Story Weaver.
