Through the acclaimed author of the "exquisitely written and deeply felt" (Geraldine Brooks, author of The Top secret Chord) novel The Railwayman's Better half comes a mysterious and gorgeously wrought story of an astonishing event that connects three people across 300 years. Imagine you viewed up at just the right minute and saw something completely surprising. Imagine if it was something so wonderful that it altered time and space forever? The Body in the Clouds explains to the story of 1 such extraordinary minute - a guy falling from the sky and making it through - and of the three men who view it, in different ways with different times, as they stand on the same parcel. An astronomer in the 1700s, a bridge employee in the 1930s, and an expatriate banker returning home in the early 21st hundred years: All three are altered by that one magical event. And all three are battling to understand what the meaning of "home" is and how to recognize it once you're there. Widely praised for her "poetic gifts" (Booklist) and "graceful, supremely genuine, [and] thought-provoking" (Kirkus Reviews) prose, Ashley Hay has crafted a luminous and memorable novel about the power of tale, its capability to define the entire world around us, and the questions that transcend time.
