The exquisitely crafted stories in Anthony Doerr's debut collection
take readers from the African Coast to the pine forests of Montana
to the damp moors of Lapland, charting a vast physical and
emotional landscape. Doerr explores the human condition in all its
varieties--metamorphosis, grief, fractured relationships, and
slowly mending hearts--conjuring nature in both its beautiful
abundance and crushing power. Some of the characters in these
stories contend with hardships; some discover unique gifts; all are
united by their ultimate deference to the ravishing universe
outside themselves.
