In The Elements, acclaimed novelist John Boyne has created a kaleidoscope of fourinterconnected narratives, each representing a different perspective on crime from the points ofview of the enabler, the accomplice, the perpetrator, and the victim.
From a mother on the run from her past, to a young soccer star on trial and a successfulsurgeon grappling with childhood trauma, and finally a father on a transformative journey withhis son, each strand combines into a tapestry of intersecting lives.
Boyne s most ambitious work yet, The Elements is both an engrossing drama and a movingexamination of why and how we allow crime to occur. In masterful, spellbinding prose, henavigates this complex subject with extraordinary empathy and unflinching honesty, at everystep challenging us to confront our own conceptions of guilt and innocence.
