The Body In The Clouds
ASHLEY HAY
Allen & Unwin, Australian Literature
Paperback, 9781742372426
What if you looked up at just the right moment & saw—out of the corner of your eye—something unexpected? What if it was something so marvellous, so extraordinary, that it transformed time & space forever? The Body in the Clouds tells the story of one extraordinary moment—a man falling from the sky, and surviving—and of three men who see it, in different ways & different times, as they stand on the same piece of land. An astronomer in the late 1700s, a bridgeworker in the 1930s, an expatriate banker returning home in the early 21st century: all three are transformed by one magical event. All are searching for the same thing: how to understand what it means to call a place home, and how to be able to tell when you get there. A novel about the power of story—the stories we tell—and have told, and will tell—for the people we love.
