Seven: Endlessly inventive' The Times

By Joanna Kavenna

Timely and timeless - a literary quest novel about trying to stay hopeful in hopeless times.Who decides the rules of the games we play?

In August 2007, or thereabouts, a young philosopher leaves Oslo, heading for Greece, on a mission to find Theodoros Apostolakis, the head of the Society of Lost Things. Fortunately, Apostolakis isn't lost, but everything else is: ancient libraries, entire civilisations, priceless books and a beautiful box, once used to play the world-famous game of Seven.

The hunt for this small thing, among the countless lost things, becomes an unforgettable absurdist quest.
