Shortlisted for the Bollinger Everyman Wodehouse Prize 2022 In her first novel since The Quick & the Dead (a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize), the legendary writer takes us into an uncertain landscape after an environmental apocalypse, a world in which only the man-made has value, but some still wish to salvage the authentic.
