Piranesi by Susanna Clarke

Within the labyrinth of halls an ocean is imprisoned\; waves thunder up staircases\, rooms are flooded in an instant. But Piranesi is n ot afraid\; he understands the tides as he understands the pattern of the labyrinth itself. He lives to explore the house. There is one other person in the house-a man called The Other\, who visits Piranesi twice a week an d asks for help with research into A Great and Secret Knowledge. But as Pi ranesi explores\, evidence emerges of another person\, and a terrible trut h begins to unravel\, revealing a world beyond the one Piranesi has always known. For readers of Neil Gaiman's The Ocean at the End of the Lane and fans of Madeline Miller's Circe\, Piranesi introduces an astonishing new w orld\, an infinite labyrinth\, full of startling images and surreal beauty \, haunted by the tides and the clouds." -- Bibliocommons
