One night, George Duncan - a decent man, a good man - is woken by a noise in his garden. Impossibly, a great white crane has tumbled to earth, shot through its wing by an arrow. Unexpectedly moved, George helps the bird, and from the moment he watches it fly off, his life is transformed.

The next day, a kind but enigmatic woman walks into George's shop. Suddenly an extraordinary new world opens up for George, but no love ever comes without risk . . .

Wise, romantic, magical and funny, The Crane Wife is a hymn to the creative imagination and a celebration of the disruptive and redemptive power of love.

Jamie Glover is an accomplished actor and audiobook narrator. His extensive television credits include Waterloo Road and Trial and Retribution. Recent leading theatre roles include Noises Off at the Old Vic/ Adelphi West End and The Chalk Garden at the Donmar Warehouse.

Reseñas de la crítica

"A lovely and magical book" (T.C. Boyle)
"Patrick Ness is on top form here . . . The Crane Wife is a tale full of bittersweet wonder with a very human soul. A treat." (Matt Haig)
"An insanely beautiful writer"
"Ness is both accessible and sophisticated, handling big subjects in prose that is simple and heart-stopping" (Sunday Times (on the Chaos Walking trilogy))
"Brave and beautiful, full of compassion" (Independent (on A Monster Calls))
"Ness is a young writer of exciting quality and unpredictability"
"A heart-warmingly deranged new voice"
"Patrick Ness recreates the world as we know it, infusing it with a charm and whimsy" (T.C. Boyle)
"This is quite simply one of the most beautiful books I have ever read. It hits an emotional tone that I can't quite put my finger on. It is a story told so simply yet reaches every fibreof your being. It is sad yet inspirational, full of hope but also despair, full of the magic of life but also it's consequences"
"I laughed, and I cried . . . but before it was over, I also felt like I'd lived another life, and died a little inside. That's how powerful Patrick Ness' new novel is" (Niall Alexander)
"The Crane Wife is a special novel: a perfect fusion of surreal imagery and beautifully crafted internal logic. Turning it over in my hands once I'd finished, I began to think of it as the literary equivalent of a Japanese puzzle box with poetry, ideas and jokes twisting and sliding out of it at surprising angles" (Helen Brown)
"This is a novel about stories and the way they change from teller to teller. That motif emerges subtly at first, before becoming explicit as the climactic calamity arrives in several versions. By that painful finale, this flight of fancy is one his readers will be only too glad to have embarked upon" (Brian Donaldson)
