Shelf Talker:
Los Angeles, 2031. The United States has collapsed, peacekeeping troops are withdrawing, and the city is slowly emerging from years of conflict. When Ari Waker attends a party with her roommate, the night takes an unsettling turn: a bewildering doppelgΓ€nger appears, and the partyβs host, Kareem, mysteriously vanishes.
As Ari searches for answers, the story expands across a fractured future America, the seaside cliffs of Greece, a domed city in Paris, and even a colony on the moon. With her signature atmospheric storytelling, Emily St. John Mandel explores surveillance, safety, power, and the resilience of humanity in a world transformed by catastrophe.
β Perfect for readers who enjoy: thought-provoking dystopian fiction, mysteries, alternate futures, complex world-building, and literary novels that explore the consequences of political and social upheaval.
