Description
By Emma Donoghue
To five-year-old Jack, Room is the world: eleven feet square, where he was born, where he and Ma eat and sleep and play and learn, and where he sleeps in the wardrobe on the nights Old Nick comes.
Ma has been held there for seven years. The novel is narrated entirely by Jack, which is what makes both halves of it bearable: the captivity, and then the far harder business of the outside.
First published 2010
