Synopsis
The "perilously beautiful" ( The Boston Globe ) first story collection by Pulitzer Prize-winning and #1 New York Times bestselling author Anthony Doerr, acclaimed writer of All the Light We Cannot See and Cloud Cuckoo Land.

Some of the characters in these stories contend with hardships; some discover unique gifts; all are united by their ultimate deference to the ravishing universe outside themselves.
