Faraway Things

Dave Eggers

Lucian's father called them faraway things those mysterious objects orphaned upon the windswept shore their stories long lost in the shroud of ocean fog. Lucian's discovery on the beach this particular day though is no ordinary faraway thing. It's a cutlass: strong shiny and powerful. As its history comes to light Lucian faces a choice: cling to the sword he loves or accept a gift that shines farther wider and deeper than he could have ever dreamed.

Stunningly illustrated with evocative art by Kelly Murphy and written by award-winning and bestselling writer Dave Eggers here is a profound and resonant tale about the reward of letting go.
