Fault Lines is a profound and poetic novel that traces four generations of a single family from present day California to WWII-era Germany.
Fault Lines begins with Sol, a gifted, terrifying child whose mother believes he is destined for greatness partly because he has a birthmark like his dad, his grandmother, and his great-grandmother. When Sol's family makes an unexpected trip to Germany, secrets begin to emerge about their history during World War II. It seems birthmarks are not all that's been passed down through the bloodlines.
Closely observed, lyrically told, and epic in scope, Fault Lines is a touching, fearless, and unusual novel about four generations of children and their parents. From the West Coast to the East, from Haifa to Toronto and Munich, secrets unwind back through time until we reach a devastating truth about the family's origins. In this novel, Nancy Huston tells a tale in which love, music, and faith rage against the shape of evil.
