One drowsy summer's day in 1984, teenage runaway Holly Sykes
encounters a strange woman who offers a small kindness in exchange
for 'asylum'. Decades will pass before Holly understands exactly
what sort of asylum the woman was seeking . . . The Bone
Clocks&,nbsp,follows the twists and turns of Holly's life from
a scarred adolescence in Gravesend to old age on Ireland's Atlantic
coast as Europe's oil supply dries up - a life not so far out of
the ordinary, yet punctuated by flashes of precognition, visits
from people who emerge from thin air and brief lapses in the laws
of reality. For Holly Sykes - daughter, sister, mother, guardian -
is also an unwitting player in a murderous feud played out in the
shadows and margins of our world, and may prove to be its decisive
weapon. Metaphysical thriller, meditation on mortality and
chronicle of our self-devouring times, this kaleidoscopic novel
crackles with the invention and wit that have made David Mitchell
one of the most celebrated writers of his generation. Here is
fiction at its most spellbinding and memorable best.
