One stiflingly hot August afternoon, as Cameron sits waiting for Tanya during their daily run to the Biz-E-Bee convenience store, he suddenly and inexplicably rises up and out of his wheelchair.\u003cbr\u003e\n  \u003cbr\u003e\n In the aftermath of this “miracle,” Cameron finds himself a celebrity at the center of a contentious debate about what’s taken place. And when scientists, journalists, and a Vatican investigator start digging, Cameron’s deepest secrets—the key to his injury, to his identity, and, in some eyes, to the nature of his recovery—become increasingly endangered. Was Cameron’s recovery a genuine miracle, or a medical breakthrough? And, finding himself transformed into a symbol, how can he hope to retain his humanity?\u003cbr\u003e\n  \u003cbr\u003e\n Brilliantly written as closely observed journalistic reportage and filtered through a wide lens that encompasses the vibrant characters affected by Cameron’s story, Anatomy of a Miracle will be read, championed, and celebrated as a powerful story of our time, and the work of a true literary master.\u003cbr\u003e\n      Review      \u003cbr\u003e\nPraise for Anatomy of a Miracle\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n“Funny, bighearted...Miles specializes in giving fully rounded humanity to characters who might elsewhere be treated as stock figures...pitch-perfect.”\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n— New York Times Book Review\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\"Jonathan Miles's masterful new novel\u003cbr\u003e\nAnatomy of a Miracle documents the slo-mo explosion of an attention-grabbing event with trompe l'oeil flourishes...Miles is a writer so virtuosic that readers will feel themselves becoming better, more observant people from reading him... Part of why\u003cbr\u003e\nAnatomy feels so expansive is that Miles takes every opportunity to delve into the characters' backstories... but this keen interest in people is part and parcel of a book in which the author describes humans as 'extraordinary' at least three times. In Miles's world, everyone — not just the people shouting loudest on the internet — is worthy of attention.\"\u003cbr\u003e\n— Los Angeles Review of Books\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\"The impossible happens in...
