A nurse, sent to investigate whether she is a fraud, meets a journalist hungry for a story . . .\n\nSet in the Irish Midlands in the 1850s, Emma Donoghue's The Wonder – inspired by numerous European and North American cases of 'fasting girls' between the sixteenth century and the twentieth – is a psychological thriller about a child's murder threatening to happen in slow motion before our eyes. Pitting all the seductions of fundamentalism against sense and love, it is a searing examination of what nourishes us, body and soul.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"book-contributors\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+Emma+Donoghue\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eEmma Donoghue\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Emma Donoghue","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47380320485539,"sku":"9781509818402","price":285.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7836\/3555\/files\/img_9781509818402_edfedd77-7667-408d-abbb-6700a8b79c37.jpg?v=1776555932","url":"https:\/\/graffitibooks.co.za\/products\/9781509818402","provider":"Graffiti Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
