Leo Gursky taps his radiator each evening to let his upstairs
neighbor know he s still alive. But it wasn t always like this: in
the Polish village of his youth, he fell in love and wrote a book.
. . . Sixty years later and half a world away, fourteen-year-old
Alma, who was named after a character in that book, undertakes an
adventure to find her namesake and save her family. With virtuosic
skill and soaring imaginative power, Nicole Krauss gradually draws
these stories together toward a climax of extraordinary depth and
beauty (Newsday)."
