THE BOOK OF FORM AND EMPTINESS - RUTH OZEKI KAR...

After the tragic death of his father  fourteen-year-old Benny Oh begins to hear voices. The
voices belong to the things in his house and sound variously pleasant  angry or sad. Then his
mother develops a hoarding problem  and the voices grow more clamorous. When ignoring them
doesn't work  Benny seeks refuge in the silence of a large public library. There he meets a
mesmerising street artist with a smug pet ferret  a homeless philosopher-poet who encourages
him to find his own voice amongst the many  and his very own Book  who narrates Benny's life
and teaches him to listen to the things that truly matter. Blending unforgettable characters
with everything from jazz to climate change to our attachment to material possessions  this is
classic Ruth Ozeki - bold  humane and heartbreaking.
