This
classic-feeling adventure tale from Newbery-winning author Dave Eggers (
The Eyes & the Impossible
) is an evocative tale of a boy and his sword, and how giving away something precious leads to an even more important discovery.
Lucian's father called them
faraway things
, those mysterious objects orphaned upon the windswept shore, their stories long lost in the shroud of ocean fog. Lucian's discovery on the beach this particular day, though, is no ordinary faraway thing. It's a
cutlass
: strong, shiny, and powerful. As its history comes to light, Lucian faces a choice: cling to the sword he loves or accept a gift that shines farther, wider, and deeper than he could have ever dreamed.
Stunningly illustrated with evocative art by Kelly Murphy and written by award-winning and bestselling writer Dave Eggers, here is a profound and resonant tale about the reward of letting go.
