Product Description (via amazon.com)
In a Balkan country mending from war, Natalia, a young doctor, is compelled to unravel the mysterious circumstances surrounding her beloved grandfather’s recent death. Searching for clues, she turns to his worn copy of The Jungle Book and the stories he told her of his encounters over the years with “the deathless man.” But most extraordinary of all is the story her grandfather never told her—the legend of the tiger’s wife.
Book Quote:
“Come on, is your heart a sponge or a fist?”
“In the end, all you want is someone to long for you when it comes time to put you in the ground.” ― Tea Obreht, The Tiger's Wife
