Meet Quark, a giant of a man carrying scars literally and figuratively, on his return to Bellfairie, as he searches for his father and clues to his mother's mysterious death. But no one goes to Bellfairie on purpose, it's always a wrong turn in someone's life. As Quark will soon learn. Like Frankenstein's monster, "The Shipbuilder of Bellfairie" is a vibrant, emotional and humane amalgam. A fantastical crime mystery with a soupçon of magic that brings to mind not only Shelley's creation but A Confederacy of Dunces in its exploration of flawed and tragic characters. "Awash in sea rain, ghosts and the stories they trail, the sound of submerged bells from offshore (or their echo, or their memory), Bellfairie and its denizens are M. Rickert creations through and through-meaning magical, mournful, mysterious, profoundly human." - Glen Hirshberg, Author of The Motherless Children Trilogy "The Shipbuilder of Bellfairie is a dark, dream-like, psychologically astute novel about the outsider as threat and victim, about the power of crowds, and the betrayal of innocence, replete with uncanny secrets, signs, and symbols that echo and reverberate, intimations of an unseen, sublunary world." - Douglas Glover, Author of Elle, and Savage Love "Fans of M. Rickert's singular blend of the mundane and the monstrous will be drawn deep into the briny, haunted world of Bellfairie." - Sofia Samatar, Author of A Stranger in Olondria, and Tender "The Shipbuilder of Bellfairie by M. Rickert is a powerful evocation of an imaginary place, both magical and mundane; the tribulations of a good-hearted hapless giant; and a compelling mystery. Dark and humorous and deep." - Jeffrey Ford, Author of Big Dark Hole
