“Nowhere is [Winterson’s] faith in the transporting power of storytelling more on display than in her new book, Christmas Days . . . dark, otherworldly and (trademark Winterson) wickedly funny . . . [a] holiday treasure . . . to be pulled out on a December night, fireside, and read aloud.” —New York Times Book Review
“If you crave the mystery, the family rituals, and the special victuals of Christmastime, you’ll savor . . . bold, revelatory feminist writer Jeanette Winterson’s Christmas Days.” —Elle
“A feast of stories . . . Winterson has wrapped up a holiday present between two covers.” —NPR
“Fables, reminiscences, ghost stories, recipes—Jeanette Winterson’s collection of holiday-themed fiction and essays has a little of everything.” —Seattle Times
“Surprising and cheering . . . A delectable read for long winter nights.” —BBC
“Spooky, clever, funny, and poignant, Winterson’s supernatural tales refresh our appreciation of what it truly means to give, to love, and to share joy.” —Booklist
“Winterson has gathered twelve Yule-themed stories . . . She is especially good with the supernatural, using eerie and magical elements in ways that hark back to Poe and Dickens . . . Spooky, inventive, funny . . . [the book] has a 19th-century charm much needed in the grim 21st.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
