Description
In rural Lakota, Wisconsin, an Amish boy born under extraordinary circumstances grows into a young man whose immense size, remarkable athletic gifts, and uncanny bond with animals set him apart from both his community and the wider world. After family tragedy and years of isolation, Gabriel Fisher is discovered by a football coach who sees possibilities—and dangers—in the attention that follows. Told through the perspectives of the people whose lives he transforms, this moving novel explores faith, grief, family, secrecy, and the fragile boundaries between belonging and becoming a spectacle. Woven with the poetry of Emily Dickinson, it is a richly layered story of everyday miracles and the costs of being extraordinary.
