A Swallow in Winter

By Timothée de Fombelle

Illustrated by Thomas Campi

A beautifully written Christmas tale, brimming with humanity and hope, by best-loved author, Timothée de Fombelle.

On a quiet Christmas night, a swallow takes flight from Africa, searching for something it cannot quite name. A disenchanted driver sits alone in his yellow truck, yearning to be home. And a man walks through the snowy streets, feeling utterly alone. But when the three destinies meet, it seems their search for hope, belonging and kindness has finally ended. An atmospheric and heart-warming story, perfect for this very special time of year.
