Amber and Clay by Laura Amy Schlitz takes you back to ancient Greece to follow the lives of Rhaskos, a Thracian slave in a Greek household and Melisto, a spoiled aristocrat. These spiritual twins have little in common besides the violent and mysterious forces that constantly dictate their lives, yet this tale vividly transcends time to remind us of how language can beautifully illuminate all aspects of human history.
“Volcanic in power, virtuosic in form, peerless in nuanced execution, Amber and Clay is compulsively readable. I was in thrall to its lyric and threnody at breakfast and at lunch and going up the stairs. The muse chose right in inspiring Laura Amy Schlitz to give us this haunting tale of duty, liberty, art, and friendship,” says Gregory Maguire, New York Times best-selling author of Wicked.
Schlitz is a 2008 Newbery Medal winning author of Good Masters! Sweet Ladies! Voices from a Medieval Village. Here are the other 2008 Newbery Medal Honor Books:
- Feathers by Jacqueline Woodson
- The Wednesday Wars by Gary D. Schmidt
- Elijah of Buxton by Christopher Paul Curtis
In addition, check out Schlitz’s other award winning novels - Newbery Honor Book and New York Times bestseller Splendors & Glooms and recipient of the Scott O’Dell Award for Historical Fiction and the National Jewish Book Award The Hired Girl.
