Isaac and the Egg

di Bobby Palmer (Autore)

Review, 2022

*THE INSTANT SATURDAY TIMES TOP 10 BESTSELLER* *A PANDORA SYKES/FANE BOOK CLUB PICK* *AS FEATURED ON BBC R4 OPEN BOOK* 'A tender story of love, grief and the transformative power of friendship' GUARDIAN **Bobby Palmer's spellbinding new novel, SMALL HOURS, is available now** Heartbreaking and heart-stealing, this modern-day fable is an unforgettable novel about sorrow, joy, friendship and love. It is early. A young man stands on a bridge and lets out a heart-wrenching scream. From deep in the woods, something screams back. It sounds improbable. But this is how Isaac meets the egg. The two are unlikely companions. But their chance encounter will transform Isaac's life in ways he cannot yet imagine. Maybe he will finally understand why he went there that morning. Maybe he will find a way to tell the truth. Sometimes, to get out of the woods, you have to go into them.
