The Names of Impossible Things. – Paperback

Oliver is twelve years old, with a journey ahead of him that will change the way he sees the world.
On a train bound for Manchester, where he must begin a new life far away from his mother, he meets Percival L. Harrow, a gentleman of impeccable manners who claims to have encountered beings and places that most people would dismiss as the stuff of imagination.
As the journey unfolds, Percival shares stories of extraordinary encounters, ancient legends and events that challenge everything we think we know. Each tale sparks new questions in Oliver’s mind and invites him to see life from an entirely different perspective.
For perhaps legends are more than mere stories. Perhaps appearances are far more deceptive than we realise. And perhaps the extraordinary is much closer than we are willing to believe.
Sometimes, all it takes is a story to discover just how much bigger the world really is than we ever imagined.
Because sometimes, all we need is to look at the world differently to realise that the impossible has been there all along.
