Description

From international bestselling author Marc Levy comes a witty and beguiling novel of one woman's unexpected journey to follow her destiny.

Alice Pendelbury believes everything in her life is pretty much in order from her good friends to her burgeoning career. But even Alice has to admit it's been an odd week. Not only has her belligerent neighbor, Mr. Daldry, suddenly become a surprisingly agreeable confidant, but he's encouraging her to take seriously the fortune-teller who told her that only by traveling to Turkey can Alice meet the most important person in her life.

What's more, the peculiarly insistent Mr. Daldry has even agreed to finance Alice's trip one that against all reason seems to be predestined. It's on this journey, crazy from the outset and strangely irresistible, that Alice will find out that nothing in her life is real, that her past is not true, and that the six people she's about to encounter will shape her future in ways she could never have dreamed.

Revised edition: Previously published asL'trange voyage de Monsieur Daldry, this edition ofThe Strange Journey of Alice Pendelburyincludes editorial revisions.
