Read Now Download Now ⏭ listen AudioBook
Description:The overnight classic by New York Times writer John Macgregor. A genre-leaping mystery which asks questions about life's meaning (and answers some of them). Few novels in 2013 have drawn more attention than Propinquity. "A novel close to unclassifiability." - Times on SundayWinner of the biennial Adelaide Festival Award - one of the world's great writing prizes."The depth of visionariness of this novel will reward many readers." - Dr Barry Westburg, Radio 5UV"Plenty of wit, lots of exuberance. One of the most imaginative novels to appear for some years." - The Age                     "An international rollercoaster." - Times on SundayA 2013 Amazon sensation, Propinquity is about the relationship between the "engagingly dangerous" Clive and the ethereal Samantha - a medievalist who discovers a secret tomb deep under Westminster Abbey, and isn't sure what to do about it.The tomb contains Richard the Lionheart's queen, reputedly a carrier of the same gnostic illumination dispensed by Christ. Samantha and her lover begin unwinding its 800-year-old enigmas.Propinquity is quite a page-turner (see Chapter 13's ritual sex among the tombs at the heart of Christendom), and contains some unexpected plot twists. Most strikingly, our heroic couple discover that the entombed queen may not actually be dead, but in a coma induced by herbs. So there's an international chase to find the antidote, lost for centuries, and bring her back to life: To watch those blue, medieval Saxon eyes open, and behold the modern world..."If she can be revived, then a gnosis master walks the earth again... The prospect is too exciting to ignore. Macgregor is a masterful writer. His prose moves with an elegant, engaging cadence... A down-under view of the world that is laced with wit and cynicism." - John, NC, USA (Amazon)"Whether Macgregor is describing the cold recesses of Westminster Abbey, the voodoo trail in Haiti, or buttering crumpets in Mullumbimby, the flowing assuredness of his prose sucks the reader in." - The Australian "An engagingly dangerous hero." - Times on Sunday                      "What a journey." - Linda Robinson (Goodreads)"Has none of the cheap, frenetic thrills of Dan Brown's book, nor the mind-bending (read: confusing) complexity of Eco's Pendulum. Yet either of these books could have been inspired by Propinquity." - Denise Greene, USA (Amazon)We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
