This ambitious novel connects the lives of characters separated by centuries and geography through the survival of an ancient Greek story. Their experiences unfold across Constantinople in the fifteenth century, a present-day American town and a future generation travelling through space. Each storyline explores the power of books, storytelling and human resilience. Anthony Doerr links these seemingly separate lives through a shared meditation on hope, knowledge and the enduring importance of stories.
