His spouse has died, his bookstore is experiencing the worst gross sales in its historical past and now his prized possession, a uncommon version of Poe poems, has been stolen. He’s given up on folks and even the books in his retailer provide one other reminder that the world is altering too quickly. However when a mysterious bundle arrives on the retailer, it offers Fikry the possibility to make his life over and see issues anew.
