false 3162006 7 We don't want to tell you too much about this book. It is a truly special story and we don't want to spoil it. Nevertheless, you need to know something, so we will just say this: It is extremely funny, but the African beach scene is horrific. The story starts there, but the book doesn't. And it's what happens afterwards that is most important. Once you have read it, you'll want to tell everyone about it. When you do, please don't tell them what happens either. The magic is in how it unfolds. 6526307 book 7 8 2008 The Other Hand total:347|5:54|4:142|3:95|2:47|1:9| 347 1226 523 98 3 12 false false Sat Sep 20 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Tue Sep 30 07:53:16 -0700 2008 Tue Sep 30 07:58:56 -0700 2008
