A Far Country by Daniel Mason
From the bestselling author of The Piano Tuner, a stunning novel about a young girl's journey through a vast, unnamed country in search of her brother. Fourteen-year-old Isabel was born in a remote village with the gift and curse of seeing farther. When drought and war grip the backlands, her brother Isaias joins a great exodus to a teeming city in the south. Soon Isabel must follow, forsaking the only home she's ever known, her sole consolation the thought of being with her brother again.Daniel Mason is a Northern California native who grew up in a family of musicians.
