Living Alone

Living Alone

by Stella Benson

Living Alone is a charmingly weird novel that blends fantasy and the practicalities of life in wartime London during World War I. It tells the story of a recluse who meets a witch and embarks on a journey through magic, morality, and aerial dogfights on broomsticks. Despite its lack of a traditional plot, the novel is full of curious details and imaginative storytelling that will appeal to witches, wizards, and muggles alike.
