Book
The Wonder : a novel / Emma Donoghue.
Set in the Irish Midlands in the 1850s, 'The Wonder' - inspired by numerous cases of 'fasting girls' between the sixteenth century and the twentieth - is a psychological thriller about a child's murder. Pitting all the seductions of fundamentalism against sense and love, this book is a searing examination of what nourishes us, body and soul.
