The Wrong Grave

SUBJECT TO AVAILABILITY

The Wrong Grave

By Kelly Link · Illustrated by Shaun Tan About

Through the lens of Kelly Link’s vivid imagination, nothing is what it seems, and everything in this collection of short stories deserves a second look.

From the multiple award-winning ‘The Faery Handbag’, in which a teenager’s grandmother carries an entire village (or is it a man-eating dog?) in her handbag, to the ‘The Wrong Grave,’ which tells the story of a sixteen year old boy who digs up the grave of his girlfriend in order to rescue the poetry he buried with her—these stories will put goosebumps on your goosebumps.

Kelly Link has a cult following in the United States and now Australian teens can have their world rocked, too. Link’s stories are funny, scary and full of unexpected insights and skewed perspectives on the world.

Shaun Tan

Shaun Tan was born in 1974 and grew up in the northern suburbs of Perth, Western Australia. In school he became known as the ‘good drawer’ which partly compensated for always being the shortest kid in every class. He graduated from the University of WA in 1995 with joint honours in Fine Arts and English Literature, and currently works full time as a freelance artist and author in Melbourne. Shaun began drawing and painting images for science fiction and horror stories in small-press magazines as a teenager, and has since become best known for illustrated books that deal with social, political and historical subjects through surreal, dream-like imagery. Shaun has also worked as a theatre designer, and worked as a concept artist for the films Horton Hears a Who and Pixar’s WALL-E. He is currently directing a short film with Passion Pictures Australia.
