More about the book

Set in the early 18th century, the narrative unfolds around a catastrophic collapse of an Incan rope bridge in Peru, claiming the lives of five individuals. The sole witness, Brother Juniper, embarks on a profound journey to understand the victims' lives and the tragedy's connection to Divine Providence. His quest spans several years and thousands of miles, exploring themes of loss, tragedy, and the human search for meaning in an indifferent universe. This Pulitzer Prize-winning novel is both critically acclaimed and deeply introspective.
