Description
Internationally bestselling author Audrey Niffenegger and her husband, graphic artist Eddie Campbell, collaborate on this quirky, irreverent collection that celebrates and satirises love of all kinds. With thirteen different vignettes about love, loss, fairies, misbehaviour, regret, wanton wrongheadedness, cats, supernatural exterminators, spies, ghosts, more cats, more fairies, and a handful of ex-boyfriends, Bizarre Romance runs the gamut when it comes to relationships. It explores the good, the bad, the ugly and the just plain weird – with Niffenegger’s sharp, imaginative prose and Campbell’s diverse comic styles, always with a sense of humour and cosmic justice.

| Review Quote | A captivating set of short stories… most appealing… meanders down some quirky byways, full of thwarted fairies, unusual fantasy realms and plenty of cats. |
| Other text | In Bizarre Romance art and love have combined in person and on the page… Niffenegger is very much a child of Angela Carter. But there’s a lightness to Niffenegger’s writing that rubs off here on her husband… in its combination of pictures and words it has an elusive thrill to it… beautiful. |
