The Shell Collector Author: Anthony Doerr

ISBN: 9781439190050 Format: Paperback Number Of Pages: 240 Published: 4 January 2011 Country of Publication: US Dimensions (cm): 21.1 x 14.0 x 1.8 Description: The "perilously beautiful" (Boston Globe) first story collection by the author of the acclaimed Pulitzer Prize-winning #1New York Times bestseller All The Light We Cannot See.

The exquisitely crafted stories in Anthony Doerr's debut collection take readers from the African Coast to the pine forests of Montana to the damp moors of Lapland, charting a vast physical and emotional landscape. Doerr explores the human condition in all its varieties-metamorphosis, grief, fractured relationships, and slowly mending hearts-conjuring nature in both its beautiful abundance and crushing power. 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.
