From Stonewall Honoree Cory McCarthy, a joyful, affectionate, read-in-one-sitting post-apocolyptic novel about letting go of the things we can’t change and holding on to the passion of our instincts.

★ “Simultaneously tragic, existentially terrifying, heartwarming, and sensual."—Kirkus, starred review

On the far side of a swift and unknowable apocalypse, a few sapiens are surviving off the last scraps of humanity. No longer recognizable as Cape Cod, the dunes of their archipelago are empty apart from regrets and ruins—until West blows in like a storm.

West is a prophet of instinct, the last amateur anthropologist, ever aware of being present in life. He can’t help but move through Ani’s rage, Karen’s anxiety, and Emil’s immense longing with curiosity and care. West’s unbridled love and grief challenge the survivors to defy extinction with the most beautifully human thing imaginable: a family.

He may even impress Death.

Recensioni della critica

"Extraordinary in both senses of the word—Postscript is a startling, loving, devastating story for us all. I hope it's not too late."—David Levithan, New York Times bestselling author of Every Day

"Postscript
is wholly original, gorgeously rendered, and so full of passion and pathos, it left me aching. It’s an actual tour de force."—Becky Albertalli, New York Times bestselling author of Simon vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda

"An incandescent work of art and a glorious coda for humanity. This is the most cathartic book I’ve ever read. It’s also a stunning masterpiece of humor, feeling, philosophy, and no-holds-barred romance. Above all, it’s an ode to instinct. Postscript has the power to realign your life. You should let it."—A. R. Capetta, Lambda-Award winning author of The Heartbreak Bakery

★ "Simultaneously tragic, existentially terrifying, heartwarming, and sensual, the narrative blends these contradictions into a compact, beautiful, and well-wrought whole.... McCarthy’s striking black-and-white illustrations adorn the text and offer more content for readers to ponder. A deep story to read on an overcast afternoon while contemplating existence."—Kirkus, starred review

★ "Evokes Francesca Lia Block.... Give this to fans of Marcus Sedgwick, Margaret Atwood’s MaddAddam Trilogy, and The Last of Us."—SLJ, starred review

"Deeply meditative.... A beautiful exploration of humanity."—Booklist

"A radical and defiant celebration of bliss in a time and place where that should be impossible."—BCCB

"Luminous . . . a poetic apocalypse narrative that explores grief, found family, and healing through community."—Publishers Weekly
