Description
Eowyn Ivey’s magical debut novel is an adult fairy tale set in 1920s Alaska, where Jack and Mabel have risked everything on a new life in a remote homestead. The wilderness is harsh, and Mabel remains haunted by the baby she lost many years ago. When a little girl mysteriously appears on their land, they are filled with wonder and foreboding. Is she truly what she seems, and can they make room in their hearts for her? Written with the clarity and vividness of the Russian fairy tale that inspired it, this tale of heartbreak and hope brings the Alaskan landscape vividly to life. The novel became an international bestseller, reached the top ten in both hardback and paperback, and was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize.
