Now, Yuknavitch offers an imaginative masterpiece: the story of Laisv\u0117, a motherless girl from the late 21st century who is learning her power as a </span><span>carrier</span><span>, a person who can harness the power of meaningful objects to carry her through time. Sifting through the detritus of a fallen city known as the Brook, she discovers a talisman that will mysteriously connect her with a series of characters from the past two centuries: a French sculptor; a woman of the American underworld; a dictator's daughter; an accused murderer; and a squad of laborers at work on a national monument. Through intricately braided storylines, Laisv\u0117 must dodge enforcement raids and&nbsp;find her way to the present day, and then, finally, to the early days of her imperfect country, to forge a connection that might save their lives--and their shared dream of freedom.<br />&nbsp;<br />A dazzling novel of body, spirit, and survival, </span><span>Thrust</span><span> will leave no reader unchanged.</span></p>",
