The Coat - Hardcover

The story begins with the once-handsome coat stuffed like a scarecrow and stuck in a strawberry field. 'What a waste of me!' it yells. Then a disappointed-looking man comes down the road. 'I could do with a coat like that,' the man says. The coat and the man travel to the Big Smoke, to the Cafe Delitzia on Viva Street. At first the man hangs back, but the coat is feisty; together they play exotic music and all the guests dance, finding the virtuoso performance irresistible. The audience goes wild.

A poetic, gutsy story to savour – a brilliant fable about embracing life, a story about freedom and transformation, a metaphor for the human potential that’s in every one of us. A surprising and delicious tale that will lift you off your feet and whirl you away.
