John Boyne's acclaimed quartet THE ELEMENTS is available for pre-order now. 'Beautifully told and gripping from first page to last' Sunday Express 'An incredible feat of storytelling... and an old-fashioned page-turner' Donal Ryan 'Gripping and well-honed...consummately constructed humming with tension' Guardian 'You can't prepare yourself for the magnitude and emotional impact of this powerful novel' John Irving ________________________________ From the author of the globally bestselling multi-million-copy classic The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas comes its astonishing and powerful sequel. Gretel Fernsby is a quiet woman leading a quiet life. She doesn't talk about her escape from Germany seventy years ago or the dark post-war years in France with her mother. Most of all she doesn't talk about her father the commandant of one of the most notorious Nazi concentration camps. But when a young family moves into the apartment below her Gretel can't help but befriend their little boy Henry though his presence brings back painful memories. One night she witnesses a violent argument between his parents which threatens to disturb her hard-won peace. For the second time in her life Gretel is given the chance to save a young boy. To do so would allay her guilt grief and remorse but it will also force her to reveal her true identity. Will she make a different choice this time whatever the cost to herself? _______________________________ Praise for John Boyne 'A master storyteller' Daily Express ' One of the best novelists of Ireland' Sunday Express ' Boyne offers writing of insight and beauty' Observer 'John Boyne is a maestro of hisoritical fiction' John Irving
