Publisher's Summary
The showstopping debut from the author of the number one Sunday Times best seller All The Light We Cannot See.
A blind man spends his days roaming the beaches of Kenya collecting shells, classifying them by feeling their whorls, spines and folds in his fingers. A young woman discovers that she can explore the inner world of an animal's mind by touching its freshly dead body. A refugee from Liberia, who cannot escape the horrors that he has witnessed, finds salvation in the clandestine act of burying the hearts of beached whales.
In The Shell Collector, Antony Doerr illuminates both the riotous dangers of the natural world and the rocky terrain of the human heart.

Loved it
Anthony Doerr's writing stays with me forever. It is a labyrinth to explore. Filled with so many new preternatural things that you couldn't believe...
