What was lost in the collapse: almost everything, almost everyone, but there is still such beauty.
One snowy night in Toronto, famous actor Arthur Leander dies on stage whilst performing the role of a lifetime. That same evening, a deadly virus touches down in North America. The world will never be the same again.
Twenty years later, Kirsten, an actress in the Travelling Symphony, performs Shakespeare in the settlements that have grown up since the collapse. But then her newly hopeful world is threatened.
If civilisation was lost, what would you preserve? And how far would you go to protect it?

Emily St. John Mandel's novel immerses readers in a haunting post-apocalyptic world where civilisation's remnants cling to the art and culture that once defined humanity. Its compelling narrative skilfully weaves past and present, drawing readers into a story that is both nostalgic and hopeful. Lauded for its beautifully evocative prose and unique take on familiar dystopian themes, it finds resonance through its exploration of memory, art, and the enduring human spirit. The book distinguishes itself with its poignant depiction of a world striving to preserve the best of what was lost, offering a fresh perspective that has captivated both literary and speculative fiction audiences.
