Bridge of Clay / Markus Zusak.

Zusak, Markus, (author.).

Summary:

Here is a story told inside out and back to front: The five Dunbar brothers are living with their menagerie of pets in the perfect chaos of a house made by their own rules. Today, the father who walked out on them long ago walks back in. And so the life of Clay, the quiet one with a harrowing secret, is about to change forever. He is the one who will build a bridge - for his family, for his past, for greatness, for his sins. A miracle and nothing less. From a grandfather, whose passion for the ancient Greeks still lights up their lives, to a mother and father who fell in love over a mislaid piano, to the present day, where five sons laugh and fight and reckon with the adult world, Bridge of Clay is a sweeping portrait of how a ramshackle family, held together by stories and love, comes to unbury one boy's tragic secret.
