Inspired by the life and work of Emily Bronte, this masterful, multi-award-winning book - acclaimed as the best Dutch novel published this century - pulls readers into a narrative that redefines time itself.

In the early 1800s, in Yorkshire, Eliza May Drayden and her sisters live far from the public eye, devoted to their shared love of reading and writing books. When, after dozens of rejections, Eliza May's only novel, Haeger Mass, is finally published, it's labelled as 'ghastly' and 'immoral'. Over time, however, it is embraced by generations of readers as a masterpiece, and tales about its mysterious, reclusive author take on a life of their own.

In eleven extraordinary chapters, the story of Eliza May - both before and after her death - unfolds: through the tales of people who met her; her sister's letters; her biographers' words; the pages of a mysterious notebook; and the lives that become intertwined with hers, even centuries later.

In The Song of Stork and Dromedary, Anjet Daanje has crafted an absorbing literary mystery and an unforgettable meditation on love, life, loss, and the inexplicable nature of time. As the Brontes themselves did, Daanje shows us that storytelling is our only way to transcend death.
