Synopsis

?? A SPELLBINDING MASTERPIECE. READ IT ONCE, REMEMBER IT FOREVER. ??

'North Woods is a monumental achievement of polyphony and humanity. Relating the narrative of an entire country via a single plot of land, it sweeps the reader through hundreds of years and an array of protagonists with a deft, heartbreaking, idiosyncratic zeal' Maggie O'Farrell

OVER FOUR CENTURIES,

'This is a time-spanning, genre-blurring work of storytelling magic . . . The only constants are the land and Mason's genius' Washington Post

A SINGLE HOUSE DEEP IN THE WOODS OF NEW ENGLAND

'Dazzling . . . weaves a Cloud Atlas-style narrative of humanity under pressure and nature under threat . . . Brave and original . . . intimate and epic, playful and serious' Guardian

IS HOME TO RUNAWAYS AND VISIONARIES, INSEPARABLE TWINS, A LOVELORN PAINTER, A DESPERATE MOTHER AND A RUTHLESS CON-MAN.

'It seems almost a magic trick, the way in which Mason knits his lives into a single tale' Sunday Times

IT WILL CHANGE THE WAY YOU SEE THE WORLD.

'North Woods has been heaped with praise and hype, and deservedly so. This is a book that treats life as a miracle and demands the proper awe from its readers' The Times
