Description
A captivating novel by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jane Smiley tells the story of three extraordinary animals and a young boy whose lives intersect in Paris. Paras, a spirited racehorse, finds herself in the City of Light after wandering out of her stall at dusk. She meets Frida, an elegant dog who knows how to navigate the city without drawing attention from suspicious Parisians. Together with two irrepressible ducks and an opinionated raven, they form an unlikely community. As Paras discovers a new part of Paris, she meets Etienne, a human boy who lives in seclusion with his nearly-one-hundred-year-old great-grandmother. The story celebrates curiosity, ingenuity, and the desire for true love and freedom, as these characters navigate their unexpected friendships and the challenges that come with them.
