The author of two worldwide bestsellers, Everything I Didn't Say and And Fires Smolder Everywhere, steps into new genre territory without changing her psychological style. A novel about a mother's love in a world enslaved by fear. Twelve-year-old Chizh leads a quiet life with his loving but broken father, a former linguist who now works as a librarian. Chizh knows that you can't ask questions, you can't stand out, you can't go far from home. For the past few years, their lives have been subject to laws designed to preserve traditional values. New laws allow the authorities to take children away from oppositionist parents, and books deemed unpatriotic are removed from libraries and bookstores. Among them is a book of poems by Chizh's mother. His mother disappeared when Chizh was nine years old. One day Chizh receives a mysterious letter with only strange drawings and sets out to find his mother. His journey will be a return to the fairy tales and stories his mother once managed to read to him and which he has forgotten. Celeste Ing's new novel is a story of how you can survive even in a fractured and mangled world if your heart survives.
