A small boat, alone on the furious ocean. A family stranded on an island, battered by waves on all sides. A decision which looms, unavoidable, on the horizon.
When a volcano collapses in the ocean and generates a tidal wave of biblical proportions, the world disappears around Louie, his parents and his eight siblings. Their house, perched on a summit, stands firm. As far as the eye can see there is only silver water. It is shaken by violent storms, like jolts of rage.
A remarkable story of destruction, resilience, love, and the invisible but powerful links that bind a family together.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Sei giorni fa un vulcano è sprofondato nell'oceano, sollevando un'onda gigantesca, e per Louie, i suoi genitori e i suoi otto fratelli e sorelle il mondo circostante è sparito. La loro casa, inerpicata sulla cima di una collina, ha resistito. Tutt'intorno, a perdita d'occhio, non c'è altro che una distesa d'acqua argentea. Un'acqua scossa da tempeste violente come accessi di rabbia. Da sei giorni sperano di veder arrivare soccorsi, perché il cibo inizia a scarseggiare. Ma solo macerie e cadaveri gonfi si avvicinano alla loro isola. E l'acqua ricomincia a salire. I genitori capiscono che bisogna partire verso le terre alte, lì troveranno aiuto. Ma sulla barca non c'è posto per tutti, e bisognerà fare una scelta tra i figli. Artikel-Nr. 9781609455675
