Description
New York, NY: Random House (2011)
First Edition. Signed.
Fine in dust jacket.
When "The New Yorker" ran an excerpt of
The Tiger's Wife
in its 2009 Fiction issue, it was clear an astonishing new talent had arrived in the world of contemporary fiction.
The time: the present. The place: a Balkan country ravaged by years of conflict. Natalia, a young doctor, is on a mission of mercy to an orphanage when she receives word of her beloved grandfather's death far from their home under circumstances shrouded in confusion. Remembering childhood stories her grandfather once told her, Natalia becomes convinced that he spent his last days searching for "the deathless man," a vagabond who claimed to be immortal.
As Natalia struggles to understand why her grandfather, a deeply rational man, would go on such a farfetched journey, she stumbles across a clue that leads her to the extraordinary story of the tiger's wife.
An involving mystery, an emotionally riveting family story, and a wondrous evocation of an unfamiliar world,
The Tiger's Wife
is a brilliant novel.
