The Enchanted

Weidenfeld & Nicolson

Indisponible
A powerful and hauntingly beautiful novel for fans of THE GREEN MILE and THE
SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION.

THE ENCHANTED wrapped its beautiful and terrible fingers around me from the
first page and refused to let go after the last. A wondrous book... so dark,
yet so exquisite.' Erin Morgentern, author of The Night Circus

A prisoner sits on death row in a maximum security prison. His only escape
from his harsh existence is through the words he dreams about, the world he
conjures around him using the power of language. For the reality of his world
is brutal and stark. He is not named, nor do we know his crime. But he
listens. He listens to the story of York, the prisoner in the cell next to him
whose execution date has been set. He hears the lady, an investigator who is
piecing together York's past. He watches as the lady falls in love with the
priest and wonders if love is still possible here. He sees the corruption and
the danger as tensions in 'this enchanted place' build. And he waits. Because
every monster was once a child, and even monsters have a story . . .
