Editor’s Note

1. Sophia Schoepfer, Editor

Death is the narrator of this tale, which follows Liesel Meminger, a young girl plucked from her home and dispatched to a foster family. When Liesel finds a book on the cold graveyard ground, her world changes forever. Marcus Zusak weaves a narrative that is a reckoning of the not-so-distant past, and a love letter to humanity and to literature.This edition of the modern classic contains seven of Alexis Deacon's atmospheric illustrations, which the author described as being filled with ‘little gifts and treasures’.
