Venice - Wisdom Tree 2

By Nick Earls

&quot;This floored me. The format is a game changer and the linked novellas combine to create the best book I&#39;ve read in 12 years, since David Mitchell&#39;s Cloud Atlas. Five complex and distinct stories set in New York, Brisbane, Vancouver, Alaska and L.A. that somehow magically meet-I can&#39;t quite believe it. Earls has never had his due but if this doesn&#39;t get incredible press from here to Timbuktu, then publishing truly is broken. Or maybe he just fixed it, because Wisdom Tree is a transcendent wonder.&quot;-Chris Flynn, author of Tiger in Eden and The Glass Kingdom<br /><br />Venice is about love and the tensions that pull us apart: the love between Harrison and his uncle Ryan, who is in need of a person to belong to, Natalie, who is pulled between her art and her heart, and Phil&#39;s awkward stilted love. Think, Nick Hornby&#39;s About a Boy.<br /><br />&quot;Nick paints the picture of Brisbane perfectly. The smells, sounds, tastes and temperature surround us as we witness Ryan&#39;s relationships grow. A sensory wonderland that carries us on the journey.&quot; -Gyton Grantley
