Cover of Edward Carey: The Swallowed Man (ePUB)

Described as ‘haunting’ by Sunday Times, The Swallowed Man is a dark reimagining of Pinocchio, told from inside the belly of a fish.


‘Profound and delightful’ Max Porter, author of Grief is the Thing with Feathers


I am writing this account, in another man’s book, by candlelight, inside the belly of a fish. I have been eaten. I have been eaten, yet I am living still. 


From the acclaimed author of Little comes this beautiful and haunting imagining of the years Geppetto spends within the belly of a sea beast.


Drawing upon the Pinocchio story while creating something entirely his own, Carey tells an unforgettable tale of fatherly love and loss, pride and regret, and of the sustaining power of art and imagination.
