Beschreibung:
From the bestselling, award-winning master of uncanny fiction comes a defining work, twenty years in the making - a deeply moving, decade and continent-spanning epic of grief, global tumult, and grim conspiracy.
'Affecting, intelligent and, in more than one place, very, very frightening. This is a novel destined for a rich afterlife' - The Guardian
'An extraordinary tour de force' - Adrian Tchaikovsky
'A monster of a book in every sense' - Francis Spufford
'I felt it in my bones, the undeniable power of a jagged masterpiece' - The New York Times
Maur's life has been shaped by an unbearable loss. But in the aftermath of what is an apparently ordinary tragedy, deeper, stranger questions arise . . . Their answers may lie within the dark heart and darker history of an old soldier who shares Maur's obsessions - and is violently pursued by the same unknown, unquiet forces.
So begins The Rouse, a masterpiece unlike any other: at once a sprawling saga of the bloody twentieth century, and the intimate story of two lives, their loves, regrets and secrets - and a terrifying journey into infinite mystery.
Praise for China Miéville, The Rouse:
'Completely without parallel' Michael Moorcock
