Description

The beloved classic novel, the basis of the classic film starring Nicole Kidman and Sandra Bullock

As children, sisters Gillian and Sally were forever outsiders in their small New England town, teased, taunted and shunned for the air of magic that seems to sparkle in the air around them. All Gillian and Sally ever wanted was to get away. 

And eventually they do – one marries, the other runs as far from home as she can manage.

Years later, however, tragedy will bring the sisters back together. And they’ll find that no matter what else may happen, they’ll always have each other. An enchanting tale of love, forgiveness and family, Practical Magic is beloved of readers of all ages.

Book 3 in the Practical Magic series.

*~*~*Readers love Practical Magic*~*~*
 
‘A real pleasure‘ Kate Atkinson

‘Simply brilliant‘ Daily Mail

‘[A] delicious fantasy of witchcraft and love in a world where gardens smell of lemon verbena and happy endings are possible‘ Cosmopolitan

‘What do you do when your long lost little sister shows up on your suburban front step? a dead man in the Oldsmobile that’s blocking your driveway? ?You help her bury him in your backyard, underneath a wilting lilac bush that will suddenly spring back to life, bearing masses of heady flowers that remind everyone who passes by of desires they thought they’d long since stifled‘ Vogue

‘Dark comedy and a light touch carry the story along to a truly Gothic climax, complete with heaving skies and witchery on the lawn’ New York Times

‘A scrim of magic lies gently over [this] fictional world, in which lilacs bloom riotously in July, a lovesick boy’s elbows sizzle on a diner countertop and a toad expectorates a silver ring…’ Publishers Weekly
