Publishers Weekly calls Cloud Cuckoo Land “a marvel” in its starred review. The novel is a triumph of imagination and compassion, a soaring narrative about children on the cusp of adulthood in a broken world, who find resilience, hope, and story. Hauntingly beautiful and redemptive, Cloud Cuckoo Land is about stewardship—of the book, of the Earth, and of the human heart.Anthony Doerr is the author of All the Light We Cannot See, winner of the Pulitzer Prize, the Carnegie Medal, the Alex Award, and a #1 New York Times bestseller. He is also the author of the story collections Memory Wall and The Shell Collector, the novel About Grace, and the memoir Four Seasons in Rome. He has won five O. Henry Prizes, the Rome Prize, the New York Public Library’s Young Lions Award, the National Magazine Award for fiction, a Guggenheim Fellowship, and the Story Prize.
