A NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW EDITORS' CHOICE 

On a beautiful spring day, a small village in Western Germany wakes up to an omen: Selma has dreamed of an okapi. Someone is about to die. But who?

As the residents of the village begin acting strangely (despite protestations that they are 
not superstitious), Selma's granddaughter Luise looks on as the imminent threat brings long carried secrets to the surface. And when death comes, it comes in a way none of them could have predicted...

A story about the absurdity of life and death, a bittersweet portrait of village life and the wider world that beckons beyond, 
What You Can See From Here is a story about the way loss and love shape not just a person, but a community.

Read if you: always picture the MRT door opening, when you're leaning on them.
