There Are Rivers in the Sky
ABOUT
THE BOOK
There Are Rivers in the Sky is a rich, sweeping novel set between the 19th century and modern times, about love and loss, memory and erasure, hurt and healing, centred around three enchanting characters living on the banks of the River Thames and the River Tigris – their lives all curiously touched by the epic of Gilgamesh.
A tour-de-force throughtout time and space, where three lives are linked by a single drop of water. The style resembles that of storytellers of the old and the reader is swept away along with the droplet and lulled by the enchanted voice of the narrator.
