Twins Summer and Winter live alone on a remote island, sheltered from
a destroyed world. Until a man arrives who will reshape their lives...
She said we didn't know what the world out there had become. We had
been alone there so long on that tiny island, in that tiny church. But
in the night, I couldn't bear it. My chest beat like wings.
Identical twin sisters Summer and Winter live alone on a remote island,
sheltered from a destroyed world. They survive on rations stockpiled by
their father and spend their days deep in their mother's collection of
classic literature - until a mysterious stranger upends their carefully
constructed reality.
At first, Edward is a welcome distraction. But who is he really, and why
has he come? As love blooms and the world stops spinning, the secrets of
the girls' past begin to unravel and escape becomes the only option.
The End of the World Is Bigger than Love is a sumptuously written
novel of love and grief, affection and sacrifice, of technological
progress and climate catastrophe, of an enigmatic bear and a talking
whale. It is unlike anything you've read before...
