The Body in the Clouds

In "The Body in the Clouds," acclaimed author Ashley Hay weaves a rich, meditative narrative that connects three men across three hundred years through an astonishing event: a man falling from the sky. Set in different eras—an astronomer in the 1700s, a bridge worker in the 1930s, and a modern expatriate banker—each character is profoundly transformed by this miraculous moment as they grapple with the meaning of "home." Celebrated for her poetic gifts and thought-provoking prose, Hay delivers an unforgettable exploration of human connectivity and the power of storytelling.
