After the death of his beloved musician father, 14-year-old Benny begins to hear voices. The voices belong to the things in his house. At first, Benny tries to ignore them, but soon the voices follow him outside the house, driving him at last to seek refuge in the silence of a public library, where objects know to speak in whispers. There, Benny discovers a strange new world, where "things happen..." A brilliantly inventive novel by the Booker Prize-finalist author of 'A Tale for the Time Being'.
