Third novel from the internationally bestselling author of I'm Thinking of Ending Things and Foe

Un thriller psicologico teso di Iain Reid. Un grave cambiamento climatico ha devastato il paese, lasciando dietro di sé una terra bruciata. Junior e Henrietta vivono una vita confortevole ma solitaria in una delle ultime fattorie rimaste. La loro esistenza privata viene turbata il giorno in cui un estraneo si presenta alla porta con notizie allarmanti. Junior è stato selezionato casualmente per viaggiare lontano dalla fattoria, ma la parte più insolita è che sono già stati presi accordi affinché, quando partirà, Henrietta non avrà modo di sentirne la mancanza. Non rimarrà sola, nemmeno per un momento. Henrietta avrà compagnia. Una compagnia familiare. Raccontato nello stile scarno e tagliente di Iain Reid, questo romanzo è un'opera geniale che sfida i generi e che rimarrà con te a lungo dopo aver voltato l'ultima pagina.

Jake and his girlfriend are on a drive to visit his parents at their remote farm. After dinner at the family home, things begin to get worryingly strange. And when he leaves her stranded in a snowstorm at an abandoned high school later that night, what follows is a chilling exploration of psychological frailty and the limitations of reality. Iain Reid's intense, suspenseful debut novel will have readers' nerves jangling. A series of tiny clues sprinkled through the relentlessly paced narrative culminate in a haunting twist on the final page. Reminiscent of Michael Faber's Under the Skin, Stephen King's Misery and the novels of Jose Saramago, I'm Thinking of Ending Things is an astonishing and highly original literary thriller that grabs you from the start - and never lets go.

Er studierte, genoss das coole, hippe Großstadtleben und hielt sich chronisch knapp bei Kasse als freier Journalist irgendwie über Wasser. Als ihm ein Job bei einem Radiosender in der Nähe seines Heimatortes angeboten wird, nimmt er ihn mangels Alternativen an und zieht kurzerhand wieder bei seinen Eltern ein. Ein Abenteuer ungeahnter Art nimmt seinen Lauf …
