\nPiranesi&rsquo\;s house is no ord inary building: its rooms are infinite\, its corridors endless\, its walls are lined with thousands upon thousands of statues\, each one different f rom all the others. Within the labyrinth of halls an ocean is imprisoned\; waves thunder up staircases\, rooms are flooded in an instant. But Pirane si is not afraid\; he understands the tides as he understands the pattern of the labyrinth itself. He lives to explore the house.
\nT here is one other person in the house&mdash\;a man called The Other\, who visits Piranesi twice a week and asks for help with research into A Great and Secret Knowledge. But as Piranesi explores\, evidence emerges of anoth er person\, and a terrible truth begins to unravel\, revealing a world bey ond the one Piranesi has always known.
\n"Clarke flips a switch\, setting off a fantastical puzzle-box mystery that we and Pirane si solve together. His sleuthing is textual analysis\; he has to read what he's written in the past and piece together a narrative"- The Los Angeles Times
