Room

Description

Jack is five. He lives with his Ma. They live in a single, locked room. They don?t have the key.Jack and Ma are prisoners.?Room is a book to read in one sitting. When it?s over you look up: the world looks the same but you are somehow different and that feeling lingers for days? Audrey Niffenegger?One of the most profoundly affecting books I?ve read in a long time? John Boyne?Such incredible imagination, and dazzling use of language . . . Room is unlike anything I?ve ever read before? Anita Shreve?Room is that rarest of entities, an entirely original work of art. I mean it as the highest possible praise when I tell you that I can?t compare it to any other book. Suffice to say that it?s potent, darkly beautiful, and revelatory? Michael Cunningham
