'Extraordinary.... The various strands of the story are resolved with a stylish twist and genuine warmth.' The Sunday Express'A minor masterpiece of organisation and historical sampling.' Time OutMatthieu Zela has lived his life well. In fact, he's lived several lives well. Because Matthew Zela's life is characterised by one amazing fact: his body stopped ageing before the end of the eighteenth century. Starting in 1758, a young Matthieu flees Paris after witnessing his mother's brutal murder. His only companions are his younger brother Tomas and one true love, Dominique Sauvet. The story of his life takes us from the French Revolution to 1920s Hollywood, from the Great Exhibition to the Wall Street Crash, and by the end of the twentieth century, Matthieu has been an engineer, a rogue, a movie mogul, a soldier, a financier, a lover to many, a cable TV executive and much more besides.Brilliantly weaving history and personal experience, this is a dazzling story of love, murder, missed chances, treachery - and redemption._______________What readers are saying about Thief of Time:***** 'Beautifully written with a story that will stay with me for a very long time.'***** 'Captivating from start to finish!'***** 'Boyne is a born storyteller.'John Boyne's upcoming novel, THE ECHO CHAMBER, is available for pre-order now.
