It has few inhabitants, now, but it teems with the stories of its living and its dead. There's the drunk Marek Marek, who discovers that he shares his body with a bird, and Franz Frost, whose nightmares come to him from a newly discovered planet. There's the man whose death-with one leg on the Polish side, one on the Czech-was an international incident. And there are the Germans who still haunt a region that not long ago they called their own. From the founding of the town to the lives of its saints, these shards piece together not only a history but a cosmology.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnother brilliant 'constellation novel' in the mode of her International Booker Prize-winning \u003ci\u003eFlights\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eHouse of Day, House of Night\u003c\/i\u003e reminds us that the story of any place, no matter how humble, is boundless.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePRAISE-\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHouse of Day, House of Night is packed with chewy philosophical ideas and spellbinding images.' \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eAustralian\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e'The language in this novel is incredible.
