THE LIVING SEA OF WAKING DREAMS - RICHARD FLANA...

'Striking...brilliantly done' The Times An ember storm of a novel  this is Booker Prize-winning
novelist Richard Flanagan at his most moving-and astonishing-best. Anna's aged mother is dying
- if her three children would just allow it. Forced by their pity to stay alive  she
increasingly escapes through her hospital window into visions of horror and delight. When
Anna's finger vanishes and a few months later her knee disappears  Anna too feels the pull of
the window. She begins to see that all around her others are similarly vanishing  but no one
else notices. All Anna can do is keep her mother alive. But the window keeps opening wider 
taking Anna and the reader ever deeper into a strangely beautiful novel about hope  love and
orange-bellied parrots. 'One of our greatest living novelists' Washington Post
