Descripci�n Paperback. Condici�n: new. Paperback. WINNER OF THE BOOKER PRIZE'A breathtakingly ambitious mystery . as beautiful as it is triumphant.' Daily MailAn astonishing, epic story of promise, deceit and desperation in New Zealand's gold rush.'What brings a fellow down here, you know, to the ends of the earth - what sparks a man?'It is 1866, and Walter Moody has come to make his fortune upon the New Zealand goldfields. On arrival, he stumbles across a tense gathering of twelve local men, who have met in secret to discuss a series of unsolved crimes. A wealthy man has vanished, a prostitute has tried to end her life, and an enormous fortune has been discovered in the home of a luckless drunk. Moody is soon drawn into the mystery: a network of fates and fortunes that is as complex and exquisitely patterned as the night sky.The Luminaries is an extraordinary piece of fiction, both a ghost story and a gripping mystery. Set amidst the promise, deceit and desperation of the mid-19th century goldrush, the lives of its rich, complex cast unspool through a labyrinthine, celestial pattern. Fiendishly clever, vividly rendered and made into a major BBC TV series, The Luminaries established Catton as one of the brightest stars in the firmament.'A book to curl up with and devour, intricately plotted and extravagantly described, a pastiche of the Victorian sensation novel in the same smart yet playful vein as Sarah Waters.' Guardian Winner of the Booker Prize in 2013: an extraordinary, epic novel, charting the promise, deceit and desperation of the mid-19th century gold rush, from one of the most talented novelists of our time.
