From the author of the no.1 New York Times bestselling novel The Book Thief. ''''An amazing talent in Australian literature'''' Sunday Telegraph Let me tell you about our brother. The fourth Dunbar boy named Clay. Everything happened to him. The Dunbar boys bring each other up in a house run by their own rules. A family of ramshackle tragedy - their mother is dead, their father has fled - they love and fight, and learn to reckon with the adult world. It is Clay, the quiet one, who will build a bridge; for his family, for his past, for his sins. He builds a bridge to transcend humanness. To survive. A miracle and nothing less. Markus Zusak makes his long-awaited return with a profoundly heartfelt and inventive novel about a family held together by stories, and a young life caught in the current: a boy in search of greatness, as a cure for a painful past. Exquisitely written multigenerational family saga... With heft and historical scope, Zusak creates a sensitively rendered tale of loss, grief, and guilt's manifestations.' Publishers Weekly
