- Cloud Cuckoo Land
- Popis:
- Fifteenth-century Constantinople. Present day Idaho. The future, and humanity's last hope. Across time and space, five young dreamers are bound by a single ancient text. Together, they tell a story of a world in peril; of the power of words, of resilience, and of hope against all odds. The Pulitzer Prize-winning author of All the Light We Cannot See returns with a heart-breaking, magnificent epic of human connection and a love letter to storytelling itself. Review Praise for Cloud Cuckoo Land: `Sets him comfortably alongside Tolkien, Rowling and David Mitchell, and he is a much more elegant writer than two of those ... Cloud Cuckoo Land is an impressive achievement and a joy to read. Serious novels are rarely this fun.' The Times `There is a kind of book a seasoned writer produces after a big success: large-hearted, wide in scope and joyous. Following his Pulitzer winner All the Light We Cannot See, Anthony Doerr's Cloud Cuckoo Land is a deep lungful of fresh air - and a gift of a novel' Guardian `A paean to stories as a source of sustenance and solace, and to the sweetness of our shared terrestrial home, Doerr's narrative is buoyant with humanity and it's author's palpable pleasure in invention' Daily Mail `A humane and uplifting book for adults that's infused with the magic of childhood reading experiences. Cloud Cuckoo Land is ultimately a celebration of books, the power and possibilities of reading' New York Times `Cloud Cuckoo Land is a fascinatingly ambitious tale that's worth the seven year wait' Stylist `Pulitzer Prize-winner Anthony Doerr's new novel traverses time and space, unifying his characters through a text written by Diogenes in the first century AD. Cloud Cuckoo Land begins there and sweeps through the millennia in a huge, imaginative arc that celebrates the outsiders, the writers and the keepers of books. An ultimately hopeful and life-affirming novel about the essence of love, literature and art' Irish Independent `This is a dazzling epic of love, war and the joy of books - one for David Mitchell fans' Guardian `Wonderment and despair, love and destruction and hope - all find their place in its sumptuously plotted pages' Observer
