''A bold, funny epic'' Observer
''Compelling and satisfying . . . At times, incredibly funny, at others, heartrending'' Sarah Winman, author of Still Life
___

Cyril Avery is not a real Avery. At least, that''s what his parents make sure to remind him. Adopted as a baby, he feels more and more disconnected with the family that treats him more as a curious pet, rather than a beloved son.

So, as a young adult, Cyril decides to embark on a quest to find his place in the world. Sometimes misguided and often in the wrong place at the wrong time, life has dealt him a difficult hand but Cyril is resolute that he can change things, and find the courage to be himself.

And in doing so, his story will come across that of Catherine Goggin, a young, pregnant woman finding herself alone and isolated at only sixteen. There is a place in the world for both of them, and Cyril is determined to find it.

The new novel by John Boyne, FIRE, is available now.
