Sobre este artículo
NY: Spiegel & Grau, 2010. Hardcover_boards. Near Fine/Fine. 5.75"x8.5" 317 pgs. Black boards w/gold foil letters to spine. Spine straight, binding tight, pages clean w/soft tone. Not x-library, unclipped (no price), & unmarked. Author photo: Lynne Harty; Jacket design: Greg Mollica. Secure ship w/track #. Isabel Duncan, a scientist at the Great Ape Language Lab, doesn't understand people, but animals she gets—especially the bonobos. Isabel feels more comfortable in their world than she's ever felt among humans . . . until she meets John Thigpen, a very married reporter who braves the ever-present animal rights protesters outside the lab to see what's really going on inside. When an explosion rocks the lab, severely injuring Isabel and "liberating" the apes, John's human interest piece turns into the story of a lifetime, one he'll risk his career and his marriage to follow. Then a reality TV show, Ape House, featuring the missing apes debuts under mysterious circumstances, and it immediately becomes the biggest—and unlikeliest—phenomenon in the history of modern media.

Sinopsis
Sara Gruen is the author of the #1 bestselling novel Water for Elephants , as well as the bestseller Riding Lessons and Flying Changes . She shares her North Carolina home with her own version of a blended family: a husband, three children, four cats, two dogs, two horses, and a goat. In order to write her latest novel, Ape House , Gruen studied linguistics and a system of lexigrams so that she could communicate directly with the bonobos living at the Great Ape Trust in Des Moines, Iowa. She now considers them to be part of her extended family, and, according to the bonobos, the feeling is mutual.
