Description
Experience the return of a master storyteller with Queen Esther from SCRIBNER. After forty years, John Irving revisits the world of his bestselling classic, The Cider House Rules. This new novel brings readers back to the orphanage in St. Cloud's, Maine, providing a deeper look into the lives shaped by history and identity. The story follows Esther Nacht, a Viennese-born Jew whose life begins with profound loss. Born in Vienna in 1905, her journey to America is marked by tragedy when her father dies at sea and her mother is murdered by anti-Semites in Portland. As she grows up in the care of Dr. Wilbur Larch, the physician and director of the St. Cloud's orphanage, the narrative explores her identity and the impact of the world around her. This contemporary fiction work offers a powerful connection to Irving's previous acclaimed literature. Perfect for fans of character-driven stories, this book explores themes of heritage and survival through the eyes of a child navigating a complex era. Add this essential new release to your literary collection today.
