Hardcover. Zustand: As New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. 1st Edition. First Edition, 1st printing. Signed by Michel Faber on second endpage, an articulate signature, no sticker on jacket. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in AS NEW condition. Includes publisher's promotional tin-&-tassle THE BOOK OF STRANGE NEW THINGS bookmark. "A monumental, genre-defying novel more than ten years in the making, Michel Faber's THE BOOK OF STRANGE NEW THINGS is a masterwork from the author of the renowned The Crimson Petal and the White. [] Peter, a devoted man of faith, is called to the mission of a lifetime, one that takes him galaxies away from his wife, Bea. Peter becomes immersed in the mysteries of an astonishing new environment, overseen by an enigmatic corporation know only as USIC. His work introduces him to a seemingly friendly native population struggling with a dangerous illness and hungry for Peter's teachings--his Bible is their 'book of strange new things.' But Peter is rattled when Bea's letters from home become increasingly desperate: typhoons and earthquakes are devastating whole countries, and governments are crumbling. Bea's faith, once the guiding light of their lives, begins to falter. [] Suddenly, a separation measured by an otherworldly distance, and defined both by one newly discovered world and another in a state of collapse, is threatened by an ever-widening gulf that is much less quantifiable. While Peter is reconciling the needs of his congregation with the desires of his strange employer, Bea is struggling for survival. [] Replete with emotional complexity and marked by the same bravura storytelling that made The Crimson Petal and the White such an international success, THE BOOK OF STRANGE NEW THINGS is a gripping, hauntingly profound meditation on faith, love tested beyond endurance. and our responsibility to those closest to us." [jacket copy] "Defiantly unclassifiable, THE BOOK OF STRANGE NEW THINGS squeezes its genre ingredients to yield a meditation on suffering, love and the origins of religious faith. Faber reminds us there is a literature of enchantment, which invites the reader to participate in the not-real in order to wake from a dream of reality to the ineffability, strangeness, and brevity of life on Earth."--Marcel Theroux, The New York Times Book Review. "A wonderful adventure story, a quasi-science fiction tale and a probing examination of a marriage. A truly strange and wonderful novel . . . Please read Michel Faber's THE BOOK OF STRANGE NEW THINGS. You won't regret it."--Cleveland Plain-Dealer. "Weird and disturbing, like any work of genius, this novel haunted me for the seven nights I spent reading it, and haunts me still. A story of faith that will mesmerize believers and nonbelievers alike, a story of love in the face of the apocalypse, a story of humanity set in an alien world--THE BOOK OF STRANGE NEW THINGS is desperately beautiful, sad, and unforgettable."--David Benioff.
