A monumental, genre-defying novel over ten years in the making, Michel Faber's The Book of Strange New Things is a masterwork from a writer in full command of his many talents.
What could hold two people together, even when they are worlds apart?
Peter Leigh is called on a journey of a lifetime, a highly unusual humanitarian mission into deep space. One that will take him light-years from his beloved wife, Bea.
As Peter pushes up against his own limits, word reaches him that Bea’s world back home is falling apart. Faber’s novel asks how love might survive such distance.
‘A masterpiece ... I didn’t so much read The Book of Strange New Things as inhabit it.’
David Mitchell
‘Magnificently bold and addictive.’
The Sunday Times
‘A work of originality and insight, as gripping as any thriller.’
