I really loved this novel. It’s deftly plotted, with leaps through time and place. The characters are vivid. There are sparkling descriptions of the natural world.
It’s a meditation on love, friendship, and regrets. And amazingly, for a book set amid an apocalypse, it’s ultimately hopeful.
I wasn’t aware, until finishing, that it’s also an HBO TV series. I’ll have to check that out.
