Piranesi
by Susanna Clarke
Susanna Clarke's Piranesi is a slim, dreamlike puzzle of a novel set inside an endless house of statues and tides. It's literary fantasy that trusts its reader: part mystery, part meditation on solitude and wonder, narrated by a man whose innocence runs the whole engine of the book.
