Reader reviews for Thrust

From the publisher

INSTANT NATIONAL BESTSELLER

THRUST IS:
"Epic." -The New York Times
"A triumph." --Elle
"Stunningly beautiful." --The Daily Beast
"Both of the moment and utterly timeless." --Chicago Review of Books
"A book to take in wide-eyed." --Rebecca Makkai

NAMED A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE WASHINGTON POST

As rising waters--and an encroaching police state--endanger her life and family, a girl with the gifts of a "carrier" travels through water and time to rescue vulnerable figures from the margins of history

Lidia Yuknavitch has an unmatched gift for capturing stories of people on the margins--vulnerable humans leading lives of challenge and transcendence. Now, Yuknavitch offers an imaginative masterpiece: the story of Laisve, a motherless girl from the late 21st century who is learning her power as a carrier, a person who can harness the power of meaningful objects to carry her through time. Sifting through the detritus of a fallen city known as the Brook, she discovers a talisman that will mysteriously connect her with a series of characters from the past two centuries: a French sculptor; a woman of the American underworld; a dictator's daughter; an accused murderer; and a squad of laborers at work on a national monument. Through intricately braided storylines, Laisve must dodge enforcement raids and find her way to the present day, and then, finally, to the early days of her imperfect country, to forge a connection that might save their lives--and their shared dream of freedom.

A dazzling novel of body, spirit, and survival, Thrust will leave no reader unchanged.
