À propos de cette écoute

**Now a major motion picture starring Jodie Comer**

A startlingly beautiful story of a family's survival, The End We Start From is a haunting but hopeful dystopian vision of a familiar world made dangerous and unstable.


'Engrossing, compelling' - Naomi Alderman, author of The Power
'I was moved, terrified, uplifted
sometimes all three at once' - Tracy Chevalier, author of Girl With a Pearl Earring

Megan Hunter's honed and spare prose paints an imagined future as realistic as it is frightening. Though the country is falling apart around them and its people are forced to become refugees, this family’s world – of new life and new hope – sings with love.

In the midst of a mysterious environmental crisis, as London is submerged below flood waters, a woman gives birth to her first child. Days later, the family are forced to leave their home in search of safety. As they move from place to place, shelter to shelter, their journey traces both fear and wonder as the baby's small fists grasp at the things he sees, as he grows and stretches, thriving and content against all the odds.

    Commentaires

    The End We Start From is a beautifully spare, haunting meditation on the persistence of life after catastrophe. I loved it. (Emily St. John Mandel, author of Station Eleven)
    I'll be recommending this book for years to come. Utterly brilliant, hugely important. Here's the thing: it's perfect. (Nathan Filer, author of Costa Prize-winning The Shock of the Fall)
    Extraordinary . . . it is her portrayal of motherhood - that tender-terrifying experience of bringing a child into a world - that has remained with me. I read it in one sitting, and was deeply moved. (Hannah Kent, author of Burial Rites and The Good People)
    I can’t remember ever having read a novel quite as sparing or as daring as Megan Hunter’s The End We Start From, or one that delivers so mighty an impact from such delicate materials. It is a moving, wistful and compelling debut. (Jim Crace, author of Harvest)
    An exceptional, alarming and beautiful book, which still echoes months after I finished reading it. Megan Hunter is a writer of unnerving power. (Evie Wyld, author of All the Birds, Singing)
    Megan Hunter's slender, startling debut shimmers with light, even as the novel heads into dark territory . . . tender and profound (Psychologies Book of the Month)
    Beautiful . . . Water isn't the thing here, love is. And how we survive as the level of love rises (Cynan Jones, author of The Dig and Cove)
    Exceptional, stunning. I devoured it (Megan Bradbury, author of Everyone is Watching)
