The Invisible Bridge by Julie Orringer

The Invisible Bridge by Julie Orringer

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * The "stunning" debut novel  (Los Angeles Times) from the bestselling author of The Flight Portfolio--the inspiration for the Netflix series Transatlantic--is a grand love story set against the backdrop of Budapest and Paris, a tale of three brothers whose lives are ravaged by war, and of one family's struggle against the forces that threaten to annihilate it.

Paris, 1937. Andras Lévi, a Hungarian-Jewish architecture student, arrives from Budapest with a scholarship, a single suitcase, and a mysterious letter he promised to deliver. But when he falls into a complicated relationship with the letter's recipient, he becomes privy to a secret that will alter the course of his--and his family's--history. From the small Hungarian town of Konyár to the grand opera houses of Budapest and Paris, from the despair of Carpathian winter to an unimaginable life in labor camps, The Invisible Bridge tells the story of a family shattered and remade in history's darkest hour.

Julie Orringer is the award-winning author of two New York Times best-selling books: The Invisible Bridge, a novel, and How to Breathe Underwater, a collection of short tales. The Guggenheim Foundation, the National Endowment for the Arts, the Cullman Center at the New York Public Library, the MacDowell Colony, and Harvard's Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study have all awarded her fellowships. Her husband and children live in Brooklyn with her. Julie Orringer's website is www.julieorringer.com.
