Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. But for that slender connection with the mainland, Andalc would have been a regular island, says Asl Bicen in the opening chapter of this deliciously multi-layered novel. And it would have been an ordinary story about love and loss, if it weren't for the earthquake that unexpectedly sets the landmass afloat on the Aegean, kindling a series of increasingly oppressive measures by the authorities; ostensibly to keep public order.

What starts as the realistic tale of a charming provincial town develops into a richly detailed political novel in a fantastic setting.
