Descriere magazin:
A Trip to the Stars begins in Manhattan when ten-year-old Loren is kidnapped from his young adoptive aunt, Mala, and over the next 15 years travels to realms both real and imaginary. Fusing imagination, scholarship, and suspense with remarkable narrative skill, Christopher creates an epic tale of love and destiny. A large, lavishly inventive novel . . . an American descendant of The Arabian Nights . . . erudite and artful entertainment.-- The New York Times Book Review At a Manhattan planetarium in 1965, ten-year-old Enzo is whisked away from his young adoptive aunt, Mala. His abductor turns out to be a blood relative: his great-uncle Junius Samax, a wealthy former gambler who lives in a converted Las Vegas hotel surrounded by a priceless art collection and a host of fascinating, idiosyncratic guests. In Samax\'s magical world, Enzo receives a unique education and pieces together the mystery of his mother\'s life and the complicated history of his adoption. Back in New York, Mala only knows that Enzo has disappeared. After a yearlong search proves fruitless, she enlists in the Navy Nursing Corps and on a hospital ship off Vietnam falls in love with a wounded B-52 navigator, who disappears on his next mission. Devastated again, Mala embarks on a restless, adventurous journey around the world, hoping to overcome the losses that have transformed her life. Fusing imagination, scholarship, and suspense with remarkable narrative skill, Nicholas Christopher builds a story of tremendous scope, an epic tale of love and destiny, as he traces the intricate latticework of Mala\'s and Enzo\'s lives. Each remains separate from each other but tied in ways they cannot imagine--until the final miraculous chapter of this extraordinary novel. A writer of remarkable gifts.-- The Washington Post Book World This labyrinthine novel . . . is animated by an encompassing lust for beauty.-- The New Yorker [Nicholas] Christopher is North America\'s García Márquez; Borges with emotional weight. . . . This is one of those rare books that, by connecting the stars, catches you in its web.-- The Globe and Mail Includes an excerpt of Nicholas Christopher\'s Tiger Rag
