The Rules of Seeing – Joe Heap
Ebook provided by NetGalley for review. Thank you.
Read May 19
Nova was born blind. For her life is good, she can speak five
languages, works as an interpreter for the Metropolitan Police and can
apparently tell when someone is lying just by the sound of their voice – a
skill sadly under-used. One day her doctor brother tells her about an operation
that can give her sight! Nova is torn but eventually agrees. Recovering in
hospital she crosses paths with Kate, the wife of one of her police colleagues,
who is having struggles of her own. We then see their growing closeness
combined with Nova struggling to understand the “rules” of sight such as glass
being see-through and reflective. Overall a really unique concept that drew me
in and swept me along.
5/5 stars
