&quote;A nail-biting narrative, setting stark human dilemmas against a lush, exotic backdrop.&quote;-People&quote;Extraordinary. . . . Nothing is as it seems, and the ending is as shocking as it's satisfying.&quote;-Boston GlobeFrom award-winning,New York Timesbestselling author Ann Patchett, a provocative and assured novel of morality and miracles, science and sacrifice set in the Amazon rainforestIn a narrative replete with poison arrows, devouring snakes, scientific miracles, and spiritual transformations,State of Wonderpresents a world of stunning surprise and danger, rich in emotional resonance and moral complexity.As Dr. Marina Singh embarks upon an uncertain odyssey into the insect-infested Amazon, she's forced to surrender herself to the lush but forbidding world that awaits within the jungle. Charged with finding her former mentor Dr. Annick Swenson, a researcher who has disappeared while working on a valuable new drug, she will have to confront her own memories of tragedy and sacrifice as she journeys into the unforgiving heart of darkness.Stirring and luminous,State of Wonderis a world unto itself, where unlikely beauty stands beside unimaginable loss beneath the rain forest's jeweled canopy. Patchett delivers a gripping adventure story and a profound look at the difficult choices we make in the name of discovery and love.
