Hardback. Zustand: Good. For fans of Jennifer Egan, Dave Eggers, and Donna Tartt--the brilliant, intricately woven new novel by Tom Rachman, author of The Imperfectionists Following one of the most critically acclaimed fiction debuts in years, New York Times bestselling author Tom Rachman returns with a brilliant, intricately woven novel about a young woman who travels the world to make sense of her puzzling past. Tooly Zylberberg, the American owner of an isolated bookshop in the Welsh countryside, conducts a life full of reading, but with few human beings. Books are safer than people, who might ask awkward questions about her life. She prefers never to mention the strange events of her youth, which mystify and worry her still. Taken from home as a girl, Tooly found herself spirited away by a group of seductive outsiders, implicated in capers from Asia to Europe to the United States. But who were her abductors? Why did they take her? What did they really want? DJ; Ex Library. Ex library but good condition. 384 pages.

Soft cover. Zustand: Fine. No Jacket. Special Edition. Advance Reader's Edition in paperback of Uncorrected Proofs of First Edition. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in Fine condition. "As a child, Tooly Zylberberg was spirited away from home--and involved in capers all over the globe--by a group of seductive outsiders. There was Humphrey, the curmudgeonly Russian with a passion for books; the charming but tempestuous Sarah, who sowed chaos in her wake; and Venn, the charismatic leader whose worldview transformed Tooly forever. Until, quite suddenly, he disappeared. Years later, Tooly, now the thirtysomething owner of an isolated bookstore in the Welsh countryside, believes she will never understand the true story of her own life. Then, startling news arrives from a long-lost boyfriend in New York, raising old mysteries and propelling her on a quest around the world in search of answers. Leaping between decades, and from Bangkok to Brooklyn, this is a breathtaking novel about long-buried secrets and about how we must choose to make our own place in the world. It will confirm Tom Rachman's reputation as one of the most exciting young writers we have." [publisher copy] "I found it impossible not to fall in love with shape-shifting Tooly. As an adult, she sports an ironical sense of humor and an attraction to dusty old books. As a child, her straight-faced mirth and wordplay are break-your-heart irresistible."--Ron Charles, The Washington Post. "If you're in the market for an accomplished and satisfying novel, one that will take hold of you immediately from page one and set you down gently at the end feeling uplifted and rewarded, you could just [buy this] copy of Tom Rachman's exquisite new book, THE RISE & FALL OF GREAT POWERS. This is what fiction is all about. It is impossible to overstate its power and elegance."--The Globe and Mail. [I'll ship it quickly.] "A satisfying jigsaw. Bring on the third masterpiece."--The Sydney Morning Herald. Pristine paperback ARC w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine & no jacket as issued.
