The Geography of You and Me
Autor Jennifer E. Smithen Paperback – 2 mar 2015 – vârsta de la 12 ani
Lucy
lives
on
the
twenty-fourth
floor.
Owen
lives
in
the
basement.
It's
fitting,
then,
that
they
meet
in
the
middle
--
stuck
between
two
floors
of
a
New
York
City
apartment
building,
on
an
elevator
rendered
useless
by
a
citywide
blackout.
After
they're
rescued,
Lucy
and
Owen
spend
the
night
wandering
the
darkened
streets
and
marveling
at
the
rare
appearance
of
stars
above
Manhattan.
But
once
the
power
is
back,
so
is
reality.
Lucy
soon
moves
abroad
with
her
parents,
while
Owen
heads
out
west
with
his
father.
The brief time they spend together leaves a mark. And as their lives take them to Edinburgh and to San Francisco, to Prague and to Portland, Lucy and Owen stay in touch through postcards, occasional e-mails, and phone calls. But can they -- despite the odds -- find a way to reunite?
Smartly observed and wonderfully romantic, Jennifer E. Smith's new novel shows that the center of the world isn't necessarily a place. Sometimes, it can be a person.

* "Fans of Smith's previous works, namelyThe Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight, and other love stories like John Green'sThe Fault in Our Starsand David Levithan'sEvery Daywill like this novel, which is a similar combination of head and heart...A welcome addition to any library."—VOYA, starred review
