***WINNER OF THE MAN BOOKER PRIZE 2014*** Forever after, there were
for them only two sorts of men: the men who were on the Line, and
the rest of humanity, who were not. In the despair of a Japanese
POW camp on the Burma Death Railway, surgeon Dorrigo Evans is
haunted by his love affair with his uncle's young wife two years
earlier. Struggling to save the men under his command from
starvation, from cholera, from beatings, he receives a letter that
will change his life forever. This is a story about the many forms
of love and death, of war and truth, as one man comes of age,
prospers, only to discover all that he has lost.
