About the book: 2023 / INSTANT BESTSELLER THE SATURDAY TIMES. IDEAL FOR FANS OF FREDRIK BUCKMAN. Sometimes, to get out of the wilds, you need to go into them. Isaac stands on bridge alone. He is broken, broken and does not know how to live further. Out of despair, he screams somewhere down into the river. And then suddenly he hears the answer. A scream perhaps even more desperate than his own. Isaac follows the sound into the forest. And what he finds there changes everything. This story may sound familiar to you. A lost man and an unexpected guest who will become his friend, but cannot stay forever. Real life, alas, is not a fairy tale. It is full of complex and surprising truths that Isaac will have to accept in order to return to life. And he will be helped in this by... an egg. A powerful, hopeful and completely extraordinary story about love and loss. Bobby Palmer's debut author, written with warmth and humor. “An uplifting book filled with charm, simplicity, pain and good humor.” – Ruth Hogan, bestselling author of The Keeper of Forgotten Things “A crazy, sad, funny debut.” – Patrick Gale “I’ll tell you one thing: this book is for anyone who has ever lost a loved one or themselves.” – Joanna Cannon “I cried, I laughed, and I thought long and hard about what I read... Isaac and the Egg will become a new classic.” – Claire McIntosh
