Fleeing stay-at-home orders in the big city, Dora and her dog move to the countryside to sit out the pandemic. She knows that Bracken, a village in the middle of nowhere, isn''t the idyll most city dwellers dream of, but she''s desperate for space and a change of scene. The quaint old house she''s saved up for needs work, weeds have taken over the yard, and her skinhead neighbour fits all the stereotypes. Just what is Dora really looking for? Distance from her boyfriend Robert, whose climate activism has crossed into obsession? Refuge from her inner turmoil? Clarity on how the whole world got so messed up? As Dora tries to keep her demons in check, unexpected things start happening all around her. Juli Zeh''s epic new novel explores our present predicaments, biases, weaknesses, and fears, but - above all - it reveals the strengths that come to light when we dare to be human
