‘North Woods is a monumental achievement of polyphony and humanity. Relating the narrative of an entire country via a single plot of land, it sweeps the reader through hundreds of years and an array of protagonists with a deft, heartbreaking, idiosyncratic zeal. I loved it’ Maggie O’Farrell

OVER FOUR CENTURIES,

A SINGLE HOUSE DEEP IN THE WOODS OF NEW ENGLAND

‘Dazzling… weaves a Cloud Atlas-style narrative of humanity under pressure and nature under threat… Brave and original… intimate and epic, playful and serious’ Guardian

IT WILL CHANGE THE WAY YOU SEE THE WORLD.

‘North Woods has been heaped with praise and hype, and deservedly so. This is a book that treats life as a miracle and demands the proper awe from its readers’ The Times
