A God in Every Stone (Paperback)

BY THE WINNER OF THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION _______________ 'I can't recommend A God in Every Stone by Kamila Shamsie too strongly ... Exciting and, in the end, profoundly moving, this will solace you during the grimmest holiday' - Antonia Fraser, Guardian Summer Reading 'A magnificent novel: beautiful, terrible, true ... It reads already like a classic' - Ali Smith 'A moving story of love and betrayal, generosity and brutality, hope and injustice, full of characters that stay with you' - Financial Times _______________ Shortlisted for the Baileys Women's Prize for Fiction Summer, 1914.
