In Our Strangers, conversations are overheard and misheard, a special delivery letter is mistaken for a rare white butterfly, toddlers learning to speak identify a ping-pong ball as an egg and mumbled remarks betray a marriage. In the glow of Davis's keen noticing, strangers can become like family and family like strangers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur Strangers is a fascinating collection that confirms the genius of a writer whose every attention is transformative.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HUNTS BOOKSHOP LTD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46105682018544,"sku":"9781805302193","price":10.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0514\/8635\/9739\/files\/9781805302193.jpg?v=1717260207","url":"https:\/\/huntsbookshop.pro\/products\/9781805302193","provider":"Hunt's Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
