People keep trying to look for a unifying theory of physics. You know, the great, unifying theory that ties all things together. I have a little science background and I wanted there to be a unifying theory of magic, which there is, in these books at least. It’s not simple, it’s not like one sentence, but you can map out how the magic all fits together in this kind of super theorem. You can count on me to make an overly complex theory of everything that has little basis in reality. I’m good at that.66:T56e,New York Times Bestseller

From the New York Times bestselling author of Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, an intoxicating, hypnotic new novel set in a dreamlike alternative reality.

Piranesi's house is no ordinary building: its rooms are infinite, its corridors endless, its walls are lined with thousands upon thousands of statues, each one different from all the others. Within the labyrinth of halls an ocean is imprisoned; waves thunder up staircases, rooms are flooded in an instant. But Piranesi is not afraid; he understands the tides as he understands the pattern of the labyrinth itself. He lives to explore the house.

There is one other person in the house-a man called The Other, who visits Piranesi twice a week and asks for help with research into A Great and Secret Knowledge. But as Piranesi explores, evidence emerges of another person, and a terrible truth begins to unravel, revealing a world beyond the one Piranesi has always known.

For readers of Neil Gaiman's The Ocean at the End of the Lane and fans of Madeline Miller's Circe, Piranesi introduces an astonishing new world, an infinite labyrinth, full of startling images and surreal beauty, haunted by the tides and the clouds.67:T4cb,We have never had so much information at our fingertips and yet most of us don't know how the world really works.
