About the Book: The Elements by John Boyne is a powerful literary fiction novel that explores human psychology through four deeply connected narratives — the enabler, the accomplice, the perpetrator, and the victim. From a haunted mother and a rising football star on trial to a surgeon confronting childhood trauma and a father on a redemptive journey, Boyne masterfully intertwines lives shaped by guilt, trauma, and redemption. With evocative prose and emotional depth, this gripping psychological drama challenges readers to examine the roots of identity and the ripple effects of personal history.
