![]() ![]() This book.īridge of Clay is long, and involved, and made me absolutely batty. ![]() Have you ever devoured a book in two days, not because you loved it, but because you wanted to be done? Yeah. Markus Zusak makes his long-awaited return with a profoundly heartfelt and inventive novel about a family held together by stories, and a young life caught in the current: a boy in search of greatness, as a cure for a painful past. He builds a bridge to transcend humanness. It is Clay, the quiet one, who will build a bridge for his family, for his past, for his sins. A family of ramshackle tragedy – their mother is dead, their father has fled – they love and fight, and learn to reckon with the adult world. The Dunbar boys bring each other up in a house run by their own rules. “Take a Peek” book reviews are short and (possibly) sweet, keeping the commentary brief and providing a little peek at what the book’s about and what I thought. ![]()
