About This Item
Trade Paperback. Publisher: Penguin USA | 2023 | Trade Paperback | 272 p. | This book is brand new. | Language: Engelska --- Information regarding the book: A taut and electrifying novel from celebrated bestselling author Lauren Groff, about one spirited girl alone in the wilderness, trying to survive "Lauren Groff just reinvented the adventure novel."-- Los Angeles Times "Glorioussurroundings come alive in prose that lives and breathes upon the page." -- Boston Globe "I know of few other writers whose sentences are so beautiful and so propulsive." -- New York Times Book Review A servant girl escapes from a colonial settlement in the wilderness. She carries nothing with her but her wits, a few possessions, and the spark of god that burns hot within her. What she finds in this terra incognita is beyond the limits of her imagination and will bend her belief in everything that her own civilization has taught her. Lauren Groff's new novel is at once a thrilling adventure story and a penetrating fable about trying to find a new way of living in a world succumbing to the churn of colonialism. The Vaster Wilds is a work of raw and prophetic power that tells the story of America in miniature, through one girl at a hinge point in history, to ask how-and if-we can adapt quickly enough to save ourselves. | We have this book in our store house - please allow for a couple of extra days for delivery.
