'Striking...brilliantly done' The Times An ember storm of a novel,
this is Booker Prize-winning novelist Richard Flanagan at his most
moving-and astonishing-best. Anna's aged mother is dying - if her
three children would just allow it. Forced by their pity to stay
alive, she increasingly escapes through her hospital window into
visions of horror and delight. When Anna's finger vanishes and a
few months later her knee disappears, Anna too feels the pull of
the window. She begins to see that all around her others are
similarly vanishing, but no one else notices. All Anna can do is
keep her mother alive. But the window keeps opening wider, taking
Anna and the reader ever deeper into a strangely beautiful novel
about hope, love and orange-bellied parrots. 'One of our greatest
living novelists' Washington Post
