What if it was something so marvelous that it transformed time and space forever?The Body in the Clouds tells the story of one such extraordinary momenta man falling from the sky, and survivingand of the three men who see it, in different ways and at different times, as they stand on the same piece of land. An astronomer in the 1700s, a bridge worker in the 1930s, and an expatriate banker returning home in the early twentyfirst century: all three are transformed by this one magical event. And all three are struggling to understand what the meaning of home is, and how to recognize it once youre there.Widely praised for her poetic gifts (Booklist) and graceful, supremely honest, [and] thoughtprovoking (Kirkus Reviews) prose, Ashley Hay has crafted a luminous and unforgettable novel about the power of story, its ability to define the world around us, and the questions that transcend time.
