Product Information

NATIONAL BESTSELLER - A heartbreaking, wildly inventive, and moving novel narrated by a teenage runaway, from the author of The Flight Attendant . Emily Shepard is on the run; the nuclear plant where her father worked has suffered a cataclysmic meltdown, and all fingers point to him. Now, orphaned, homeless, and certain that she's a pariah, Emily's taken to hiding out on the frigid streets of Burlington, Vermont, creating a new identity inspired by her favorite poet, Emily Dickinson. Then she meets Cameron. Nine years old and with a string of foster families behind him, he sparks something in Emily, and she protects him with a fierceness she didn't know she possessed. But when an emergency threatens the fledgling home she's created, Emily realizes that she can't hide forever. Look for Chris Bohjalian's new novel, The Lioness !

One of the most memorable teenage protagonists in recent fiction." -- The Washington Post "Heartbreaking.... This is an adult novel ... but readers of any age who love John Green''s novels might find [Emily]''s story, sobering as it is, an awesome one." -- Milwaukee Journal Sentinel "Stirring, sensitive.... One of the most authentic and distinctive voices since Emma Donoghue''s [ Room ]." -- San Francisco Chronicle "I have a new favorite Chris Bohjalian novel.

Close Your Eyes, Hold Hands reminds us of our innate need for connection." -- Pittsburgh Post-Gazette "A masterful storyteller ... Bohjalian hits every note. His characters have depth, his story sings." -- The Advocate (Baton Rouge, LA) "Bohjalian delivers a thoroughly engrossing and poignant coming-of-age story set against a nightmarish backdrop as real as yesterday''s headlines from Fukushima and Chernobyl. And in Emily he''s created a remarkable and complicated teenager ... [with] a wry, honest voice as distinctive as Holden Caulfield''s." -- Associated Press "Dazzling.... A novel for the ages.... This is pure beauty in book form." -- The Free-Lance Star (Fredericksburg, VA) "A potent story of loss, hope, and the overpowering yearning for home." -- The Armenian Weekly "Rings with poetry and truth." -- Library Journal "A dystopian nightmare entwined with a wrenching personal crisis.... The notion of ''just a life I left'' grows more intense for somebody like Emily Shepard who can''t return and is unsure about how to go forward." -- Burlington Free Press "[A] brave saga." -- Booklist "Impressive.... [Emily''s] admiration for kindred spirit Emily Dickinson serves to humanize her plight, as does an epiphany in the book''s bittersweet conclusion." -- Publishers Weekly "Bohjalian once again reveals an uncanny talent for crafting a young female protagonist who is fatally flawed, but nevertheless immensely likable.... Resonates with a message of hope, truth and the fragility of life." -- BookPage "Emily''s voice is a compelling one.... and hers is a journey readers will avidly follow." -- Kirkus Reviews "I have a new favorite Chris Bohjalian novel. Close Your Eyes, Hold Hands is a book I wish I''d been smart enough to write: a masterpiece of narrative voice, of emotion, and of how--as Emily Dickinson might say--the sparest of words can hold a wealth of pain. If you need any proof that fiction can scare us, move us, and break our hearts simultaneously--look no further." --Jodi Picoult, #1 New York Times bestselling author, "Chris Bohjalian is a master. . . .
