A proposito di questo titolo

4 a.m., New York City. A silent disaster. There is no flash of light, no crumbling, no quaking. Each person in New York wakes up on an unfamiliar block when the buildings all switch locations overnight. The power grid has snapped, thousands of residents are missing, and the Empire State Building is on Coney Island—for now. The next night, it happens again.

Esme Green and Arjun Varma work for the City of New York’s Emergency Management team and are tasked with disaster response for “The Unmapping.” As Esme tries to wade through the bureaucratic nightmare of an endlessly shuffling city, she’s distracted by the ongoing search for her missing fiancé. Meanwhile, Arjun focuses on the ground-level rescue of disoriented New Yorkers, hoping to become the hero the city needs.

While scientists scramble to find a solution—or at least a means to cope—and mysterious “red cloak” cults crop up in the disaster’s wake, New York begins to reckon with a new reality no one recognizes. For Esme and Arjun, the fight to hold the city together will mean tackling questions about themselves that they were too afraid to ask—and facing answers they never expected. With themes of climate change, political unrest, and life in a state of emergency, The Unmapping is a timely and captivating debut.

Recensioni della critica

“An extremely pacy, suspenseful cli-fi novel that—in its central conceit—finds an apt, hard-hitting metaphor for the uncanny and disorienting reality of our times, and follows through on it with courage.”

Caoilinn Hughes, author of The Alternatives

“Bold, inventive, and genre-defying, The Unmapping is a thrilling exploration of human nature, survival, and the unknown forces that shape our world. At once surreal and eerily prescient, Robbins deftly conjures the disorientation of a city upended and rearranged by a mysterious phenomenon, and the fragility of the systems that underpin our lives. I was in Robbins’s thrall from page one.” Nada Alic, author of Bad Thoughts

The Unmapping is a madcap adventure—a big concept novel with a lot of heart—and most importantly, it’s great fun.”

Bud Smith

The Unmapping is a timely and original novel that reads like a satisfying twenty-first century rendering of The Twilight Zone. Fans of China Miéville will delight in this quickly paced narrative that is unafraid to tackle the most pressing issues of our time. Robbins has a dazzling imagination matched by sparkling prose and a nose for plot. A great read.” Nickolas Butler, internationally bestselling author of Shotgun Lovesongs and A Forty Year Kiss

“What a powerful way to get at the essential fact of our time—that the world we’ve always known is now shifting around us, and we must come together to confront that reality.”

Bill McKibben, author of The End of Nature
