Product Information
From the award-winning author of The Mistress of Nothing comes a highly imaginative story of colliding worlds and extraordinary connections, revealing the tenuous, often unexpected ties that bind us together. When everything was falling apart, someone fell into place... Suburban London housewife Harriet spends her days doing what she's worst at. She grocery shops for her family who eats too much, parents a son who refuses to communicate, and tries to be a wife to a man who hasn't embraced her in years. But what starts out as a mundane trip to the supermarket turns her world upside down when a mysterious man named Yacub falls out of the sky from the landing gear of an airplane and lands on her car in the parking lot--and survives. He's starving and freezing cold--what else can she do other than bring him home to her family? Suddenly her son has stepped away from the video games and her husband is looking at her once again--even if it's because they think she's crazy for taking in a complete stranger who stinks of gas. And just who is Yacub, this young man who escaped from a Dubai labor camp and stowed away in the belly of the plane to travel around the world? Is it an extraordinary coincidence that he's dropped into Harriet's life just as a long-buried secret from her past threatens to come to light? Inspired by real-life accounts of airplane stowaways, Landing Gear showcases the complex texture of modern life, and how we sometimes need help seeing what's right in front of us.

Explores the relationships people form across boundaries…This is a book you can't stop thinking about., The book's commitment to a historical and pragmatic voice is its true gem....A tough story of the unavoidable tragedies and celebrations that three simple, yet extraordinary, lives may yield., Endowing Sally with tremendous character, Pullinger successfully imagines an ordinary life in extraordinary circumstances., A highly sensual evocation of place and time, Kate Pullinger's The Mistress of Nothing is a journey down the Nile that explores the subtle complexities of power, race, class and love during the Victorian era. The book, narrated by the character of the maid, Sally Naldrett, has one of the most distinctive and memorable voices in recent literature., Explores the relationships people form across boundaries...This is a book you can't stop thinking about., In an utterly modern, spare novel, author Kate Pullinger gives readers an accurate, insightful glimpse at the world today., A rich, compelling novel. The story is told...so engagingly that I felt a great loss when I reached the end of the book., There is an unexpected lightness to the narration, a quality that can be attributed to Pullinger's sharp and precise prose. . . . A fitting follow-up to its award-winning predecessor, Landing Gear is a beautiful and profound story about finding love, peace, and meaning in a too-busy world., Landing Gear is a wonderful novel, a novel of secrets-it is a novel of many other things besides, but this is what held me to the narrative: secrets, each carefully and cleverly revealed, all abetting a propulsive storyline that offers up startling revelations to the very end. This is the work of a writer at the top of her game, and I absolutely loved it., Innovative, enthralling, kinetic, and often subversively funny. Alongside Landing Gear's stowaway, Yacub, we free-fall and rip a hole right through modern society's illusions of any shared comfort zone. I loved the headlong rush, the imperiled tenderness., Tantalizing…Pullinger has done her research.…Sally's observations…bring this lost world to life., Kate Pullinger's exquisite writing draws us into a world in which characters negotiate between the probable and the all-but-impossible. 'How can they survive this?' we ask ourselves, and then it hits us: we all do., A volcano, an airplane, an immediate, long-ago fall. From an extraordinary premise the disconnections of our airborne world Kate Pullinger weaves together fragments of four lives, unfolding in disparate corners of the world, lives that intersect finally in small-town England. A portrait of a modern nuclear family explosive, searing, and the basic unit of life Landing Gear is truly a novel for our brave new world., An interesting story, exploring relationships between mother and child, master and servant, husband and multiple wives, as well as bringing out the political climate of Egypt during the 1800s., Strap yourself in and get in a comfortable position. Once you start Landing Gear, you won't be able to put it down. Pullinger takes you on turbulent and exhilarating ride through modern family relationships, our cultural divide, and the unexpected things that come crashing into our lives., A volcano, an airplane, an immediate, long-ago fall. From an extraordinary premise - the disconnections of our airborne world - Kate Pullinger weaves together fragments of four lives, unfolding in disparate corners of the world, lives that intersect finally in small-town England. A portrait of a modern nuclear family - explosive, searing, and the basic unit of life - Landing Gear is truly a novel for our brave new world., Tantalizing...Pullinger has done her research....Sally's observations...bring this lost world to life., Despite the many serious things that happen in Landing Gear, the novel is a humorously lighthearted read with many laugh-out-loud moments. . . . Truly a 21st-century story about holding onto family and secrets in the Internet age., Landing Gear is a wonderful novel, a novel of secrets--it is a novel of many other things besides, but this is what held me to the narrative: secrets, each carefully and cleverly revealed, all abetting a propulsive storyline that offers up startling revelations to the very end. This is the work of a writer at the top of her game, and I absolutely loved it.

Torn cover, a bit disappointed at the “very good” description, but it’s a mass used bookstore and they don’t check the books before they describe them I suppose.
