A Curiosity of Folklore, Magic and Spells is a lovingly curated compendium of time-honoured traditions and curious customs that have bewitched us for generations.

Discover simple magic, heirloom recipes and forgotten fairytales in this eclectic treasury. The twelve chapters, representative of the calendar year, present the celebrations, superstitions and folklore that shape our year. From cherished traditions like Valentine’s Day to the lost excitement of May Day, A Curiosity of Folklore, Magic and Spells reveals a calendar bursting with history, imagination and curious facts.

Take a closer look at your favourite homespun rituals and the magic we conjure every day; make a candle wish, mix a moon oil elixir, and hang your romantic hopes on the predictions of an apple peel. This sumptuous volume will appeal to the creative and curious.
