About this book
Piranesi lives in an endless House of marble halls, flooded chambers, statues, and crashing tides. He records its birds, tides, bones, and mysteries with tender precision, believing he and one other man are its only inhabitants. Then clues begin to suggest that the House holds a past he cannot fully remember, and perhaps a danger concealed within its beauty. Told through his journal entries, this compact, strange, and deeply humane novel turns an uncanny labyrinth into a story about identity, solitude, trust, and the meanings we make from fragments.
