WHY WE LOVE IT

"How do our stories define us? Do they paint the full picture of our lives? Do they convey how we felt while living them? In There Are Rivers In The Sky, an epic that stretches from ancient Mesopotamia to Victorian London to the present day, all these questions are asked and, in recognition of the complexity of life, none is definitively answered. This is a book in which to lose yourself, succumbing to its ebbs and flows before emerging in awe of the tides on which we have been swept away." - Sam, Co-Founder of Max Minerva's

ABOUT THE BOOK

There Are Rivers in the Sky is a rich, sweeping novel set between the 19th century and modern times, about love and loss, memory and erasure, hurt and healing, centred around three enchanting characters living on the banks of the River Thames and the River Tigris – their lives all curiously touched by the epic of Gilgamesh.
