Bestseller del New York Times
Ganador del Women's Prize for Fiction
Finalista de World Fantasy Awards Vuelve la autora de Jonathan Strange y el señor Norrell con una novela hipnótica ambientada en una realidad onÃrica. La casa de Piranesi no es un edificio cualquiera: sus habitaciones son monumentales, con paredes llenas de miles de estatuas, y sus pasillos, interminables. Dentro del dédalo de corredores hay un océano aprisionado en el que las olas retumban y las mareas inundan los aposentos. Pero Piranesi no tiene miedo: comprende las embestidas del mar igual que el patrón del laberinto, mientras explora los lÃmites de su mundo y avanza, con la ayuda de un hombre llamado El Otro, en una investigación cientÃfica para alcanzar El Gran Conocimiento Secreto. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION New York Times Bestseller

Winner of the Women's Prize for Fiction
World Fantasy Awards Finalist Chosen as a book of the year by the the Times, Guardian, Observer, Daily Telegraph, Financial Times, I Paper, New Statesman, Spectator, Time Magazine, Times Literary Supplement, BBC Culture, Netgalley and the Church Times The spectacular new novel from the bestselling author of Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, 'one of our greatest living authors.' (New York Magazine) Piranesi lives in the House. Perhaps he always has. In his notebooks, day after day, he makes a clear and careful record of its wonders: the labyrinth of halls, the thousands upon thousands of statues, the tides that thunder up staircases, the clouds that move in slow procession through the upper halls. On Tuesdays and Fridays Piranesi sees his friend, the Other. At other times he brings tributes of food to the Dead. But mostly, he is alone. Messages begin to appear, scratched out in chalk on the pavements. There is someone new in the House. But who are they and what do they want? Are they a friend or do they bring destruction and madness as the Other claims? Lost texts must be found; secrets must be uncovered. The world that Piranesi thought he knew is becoming strange and dangerous. The Beauty of the House is immeasurable; its Kindness infinite.
