“A rich gothic diversion, uncovering what books have trapped within them and reminding us of the power of storytelling. Spellbinding.” (Knight Tracy)
Imagine being able to erase grief. Imagine you could eliminate the pain. Imagine being able to hide your darkest, most horrifying secret. Forever. Young farmer Emmett is working in the fields when a strange letter arrives summoning him to leave his family. He will begin an apprenticeship in bookbinding – a job that instills fear, superstition and prejudice in their small community, but neither he nor his parents can refuse.
As far as he could recall, Emmett was attracted to books, even though they were strictly forbidden. Bookbinding is a sacred profession, Seredith informed her new apprentice, and he was a born binder. Under the supervision of the old woman, Emmett learned how to craft elegant leather-bound booklets. In each, they will capture something unique and extraordinary: a memory. If there’s something you’d like to forget, a file can help. If there’s something you need to remove, they can help. In the pages of the books they create, secrets are hidden and the past is locked away. In a cellar under his mentor’s workshop, rows of books are meticulously stored.
But while Seredith was a craftsman, there were other kind, greedy, and unscrupulous merchants who used their talents for diabolical purposes – and just as Emmett began to settle down with perfection. In his new scene, he made an amazing discovery: One of the books featured his book. name on it. Before long, everything he thought he understood about his life would be amazingly rewritten.
An unforgettable novel of enchantment, mystery, memory, and forbidden love, The Binding is a stunning homage to the allure and life-changing power of books – and at the same time A reminder to all of us that knowledge can be a kind of magic of its own.
Emmett is a bookbinder, someone who can record a person’s memories and then seal them into a book. That person then has no knowledge of the facts. Is this a good or bad idea? The story lies in who crosses Emmett’s path and the consequences that follow. The Binding gives readers a lot to think about. What a ‘new’ idea!
