Om den här ljudboken
'Every bit as gripping as it is horrifying' Ian Rankin
'So striking... like seeing our last few years through a distorted fever-dream' Lucy Caldwell
'A bleeding, sweating story' Guardian
'A bracingly original tale of lust and malice' Rob Doyle
'A work of exquisite strangeness, unsettling and arresting' Wendy Erskine
'An almost impossibly elegant evocation of violence, eroticism and derangement' Keiran Goddard
How do we live at the end of the world?
Over the course of one claustrophobic week, in an eerie, sweltering English summer somewhere in the near-future, Anna meets Ava. As Anna grieves her dead daughter, a dying landscape and a future they might have shared, Ava's mysterious pull swallows her whole. But what does Ava really want? Who are they both, really? And what are they to each other?
Braiding climate chaos, lust, politics, poetry and violence, Ava Anna Ada is a contemporary, dystopian fable, which asks us: what if the apocalypse has been and gone, and nobody noticed?
'A perverse, dark tale of shifting identities, deceit and manipulation'
Financial Times
'Shocking and uncompromising... visceral and vibrant; piercingly astute'
Miki Berenyi
