Anotace knihy

In the tradition of modern fairytales like American Gods and Spinning Silver comes a sweeping epic rich in Eastern European folklore a debut novel about the ancestral hauntings that stalk us, and the uncanny power of story.The Yaga siblings Bellatine, a young woodworker, and Isaac, a wayfaring street performer and con artist have been estranged since childhood, separated both by resentment and by wide miles of American highway. But when they learn that they are to receive a mysterious inheritance, the siblings are reunited only to discover that their bequest isn t land or money, but something far stranger: a sentient house on chicken legs.  Thistlefoot, as the house is called, has arrived from the Yagas ancestral home in Russia but not alone. A sinister figure known only as the Longshadow Man has tracked it to American shores, bearing with him violent secrets from the past: fiery memories that have hidden in Isaac and Bellatine s blood for generations. As the Yaga siblings embark with Thistlefoot on a final cross-country tour of their family s traveling theater show, the Longshadow Man follows in relentless pursuit, seeding destruction in his wake. Ultimately, time, magic, and legacy must collide erupting in a powerful conflagration to determine who gets to remember the past and craft a new future.   An enchanted adventure illuminated by Jewish myth and adorned with lyrical prose as tantalizing and sweet as briar berries, Thistlefoot is an immersive modern fantasy saga by a bold new talent.
