Brief Summary Bridge of Clay by Markus Zusak

This book is fine. That’s the best way I can describe it. There are some very high points and then a lot of filler and repetition. The story is nonlinear, but woven well as it traces the lives and history of the Dunbar clan.What starts as a searing flame of a story of characters alive with unbridled adolescent energy, is extinguished somewhat as the story folds over itself again and again. The power of the linear story (as the characters themselves would have experienced it) is diluted by the cyclical story structure. Still, Clay is a beautiful character. Deeply wounded and intense in his sense of rightness, Clay seeks to make peace with his world despite setbacks, abandonment, loss, death, and pain. He determinedly forces his way forward in life and, in his sheer determination, finds a sort of cathartic peace.Zusak introduces the Dunbar boys with a confusing, beautiful compelling story of struggle–a metaphor, perhaps, which seems to lie at the heart of the novel. Clay is poised at the starting line for a 400 meter race–one lap around the track. The track, stadium, and field are all in disrepair, which provides the perfect setting for boyhood to thrive. In the crumbling bleachers are onlookers and betters. Spaced out along the track (invisible to Clay because of the weeds from the infield) are three sets of boys who are determined to stop Clay from making it to the finish.
