Krátky popis
The New York Times bestseller, a deeply heart-wrenching novel about
the unbreakable love between a mother and child.'It's impossible
not to be moved' Stephen King'Exceptionally powerful and scaldingly
relevant' Observer'Stunning...this novel will break your heart and
fire up your courage' Mail on Sunday'Thought-provoking,
heart-wrenching' Reese WitherspoonTwelve-year-old Bird Gardner
lives a quiet existence with his loving father, a former linguist
who now shelves books in a university library. His mother Margaret,
a Chinese American poet, left without a trace when he was nine
years old. He doesn't know what happened to her-only that her books
have been banned-and he resents that she cared more about her work
than about him. Then one day, Bird receives a mysterious letter
containing only a cryptic drawing, and soon he is pulled into a
quest to find her. His journey will take him back to the many
folktales she poured into his head as a child, through the ranks of
an underground network of heroic librarians, and finally to New
York City, where he will finally learn the truth about what
happened to his mother, and what the future holds for them both.
Our Missing Hearts is an old story made new, of the ways supposedly
civilized communities can ignore the most searing injustice. It's
about the lessons and legacies we pass on to our children, and the
power of art to create change.
