O knihe
A dazzling debut. Magic-realism blends with Japanese myth and legend in an
original story about grief, memory, time and an earthquake that shook a nation.
There's a cat??sh under the islands of Japan and when it rolls the land rises and falls.
Sora hates the cat??sh whose rolling caused an earthquake so powerful it cracked time
itself. It destroyed her home and took her mother. Now Sora and her scientist father live
close to the zones - the wild and abandoned places where time runs faster or slower
than normal. Sora is sensitive to the shifts, and her father recruits her help in exploring
these liminal spaces.
But it's dangerous there - and as she strays further inside in search of her mother, she
??nds that time distorts, memories fracture and shadows, a glimmer of things not entirely
human, linger. After Sora's father goes missing, she has no choice but to venture into
uncharted spaces within the time zones to ??nd him, her mother and perhaps even the
cat??sh itself...
Stylish, accomplished and thought-provoking story-telling explores themes of identity,
philosophy, science, ecology, life, loss and love. For 14+
