Krátky popis
A richly atmospheric fantasy set across one day, as a ballet troupe
of lost souls perform an ancient dance for the faerie realms,
knowing they could be snatched away by their audience of faerie
princes, imps and sprites at any moment. For fans of The Night
Circus by Erin Morgenstern, Caraval by Stephanie Garber, Pantomime
by Laura Lam and The Queen of the Night by Alexander Chee. As dawn
breaks on All Souls Day, the lingering mists part to unveil an
unending vista of serried gravestones. Between them looms a theatre
like a haunted house from a horror film and the sleek iron carapace
of a steam train - the Pearl. On board are the cast, orchestra and
crew of a travelling ballet company, performing a show called The
Apple and the Pearl. Nine o' clock in the morning and as he
stumbles toward the restaurant car the lighting director, Zach, is
introduced to a new recruit, Lara. “Have you ever worked in ballet
before?” he asks her and quickly follows up with, “Have you had any
contact with the supernatural?” Everyone from the principal
ballerina to the first violinist, from the wardrobe mistress to the
newest members of the corps de ballet does everything they can to
get the show on stage and looking fantastic. But in the world of
The Apple and The Pearl these artists also have to contend with the
malevolent glamour of an audience of Fae creatures only too eager
to snatch them away into the Otherworld.
