John Boyne's novel The Heart's Invisible Furies has one of the most powerful opening chapters of anything I've ever read. It has stayed with me and is an extract I've used in teaching a variety of times always with excellent results. It was a joy to find someone else who'd loved the book too in the form of Bedside Reading's first pharmacist guest, Kerry Parry https://twitter.com/kerryparry8
