~ Standard Hardcover In this masterpiece by Emma Donoghue, bestselling author of the literary sensation Room, an English nurse is brought to a small Irish village to observe what a ppears to be a miracle: a girl said to have survived without food for month, but may actually be a murder in the making, and soon finds herself fighting to save the child's life . . . Claustrophobic, controversial, inventive, intelligent, and deliciously gothic, The Wonder is a tale of two strangers who transform each other's lives, a psychological thriller, and a story of love pitted against evil. "The Wonder is equal parts psychological drama and unorthodox love story. A thoroughly enjoyable read from one of the country's premier storytellers." -- Toronto Star Show more
