Book Of Fire TPB

This morning, I met the man who started the fire. You see, he was the one
who took it all away, all of life as I knew it. He stole the world...

Once upon a time there was a beautiful village that held a million stories of love and
loss and peace and war, and it was swallowed up by a fire that blazed up to the
sky. The fire ran all the way down to the sea where it met with its reflection.
A family from two nations, England and Greece, live a simple life on a tiny Greek
island: Irini, Tasso and their daughter, lovely, sweet Chara, whose name means
joy. Their life goes up in flames in a single day when one man starts a fire out of
greed and indifference. Many are killed, homes are destroyed, and the island's
natural beauty wiped out.
In the wake of the fire, Chara bears deep scars across her back and arms. Tasso is
frozen in trauma, devastated that he wasn't there when his family most needed
him. And Irini is crippled by guilt at her part in the fate of the man who started the
fire.
But this family has survived, and slowly green shoots of hope and renewal will grow
from the smouldering ruins of devastation.
Once again, Christy Lefteri has crafted a novel which is intimate and epic,
sweeping and delicate. The Book of Fire explores not only the damage wrought
by human folly, but also - and ultimately - our powers of redemption and
renewal.
