The Hugo Award–winning author’s first novel: “One of the most impressive bodies of work in contemporary science fiction.” —The New York Times
In the hard years of the Depression, young Travis lives with his uncle and aunt. Upstairs lives the mysterious Anna. Anna says she's going to be “changing,” and she needs Travis's help . . . for purposes she won't explain.
Robert Charles Wilson's A Hidden Place is a science fiction tale of passion, terror, and hope, opening out to a great, dark, and unsuspected universe.
“An astonishing debut. Set in the American Depression, it is first and foremost a novel of character—of Travis Fisher’s coming of age when he is transplanted to the Midwest; of his girlfriend Nancy Wilcox, trapped in a small town with its small town bigotries; of Travis’s uncle, a strong man forced to accept his limitations; and most of all the strange hobo, Bone, and the mysterious boarder that Travis’s uncle has taken in . . . Whether dealing with such dramas, or the quiet moments between Travis and Nancy, Wilson proves his remarkable talent on every page. Recommended.” —Charles de Lint, The Ottawa Citizen
“A Hidden Place is an impressive first novel, and Wilson is clearly a writer to watch.” —San Francisco Chronicle
“A Hidden Place will please you, and Wilson has a good deal to say to us all—let’s hope for more of it.” —Locus
