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. He went to Harvard University for biology and the University of California, San Francisco for medicine. His first novel, The Piano Tuner, was a national hit in 2002 and has since been translated into 27 languages. A Distant Land, The Winter Soldier, and A Register of My Journey Upon Earth are among his other publications, and his work has featured in Harper's Magazine and Lapham's Quarterly. He resides in the Bay Area of San Francisco.
