Sales Points

• Louise Glück, winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature 2020, takes a new direction in a fable which returns to essential questions of identity and belonging

• The twins, Marigold and Rose, in their first year of life, begin to piece together the world as they move between Mother’s stories of ‘Long, long ago’ and Father’s ‘Once upon a time’

• A story about beginnings and endings

• Charming, resonant, and written with Glück’s characteristic poise and curiosity, Marigold and Rose unfolds as a new kind of creation myth
