These stories go deeper into the Victorian world and lives of the acclaimed international bestseller The Crimson Petal and the White. Michel Faber’s tale of love and lust in the Victorian-era The Crimson Petal and the White was hailed as “a Dickensian novel for our times.” Now a major BBC TV drama, the saga of a prostitute named Sugar and the man who longs to possess her captured hearts and left readers desperate for more (The Guardian, UK). In The Apple, Faber returns to Silver Street to find it still teeming with life, and conjures further tantalizing glimpses of Sugar, Clara, William, Mr. Bodley, and many other favorites. For both fans of the novel and newcomers to this rich and historically vivid world, The Apple confirms that “Michel Faber is a master of the short-story form” (Times Literary Supplement, UK).
