Christopher Barzak sells odd novel to Bantam Dell

Christopher Barzak sold The Love We Share Without Knowing to Juliet Ullman at Bantam Dell. Agent Christopher Schelling of the Ralph M. Vicinanza agency handled the deal. The book is “set in Japan, in which the lives of several strangers—including a Japanese suicide club survivor, an American teacher of English whose lover was killed in 9/11, and a man mysteriously struck blind—are gently linked and interwoven by love and loss and fate.” Bantam published his debut novel, One for Sorrow in August.
