The year of the flood - margaret atwood

By turns dark, tender, violent, thoughtful, and uneasily hilarious, the new novel from the author of The Handmaids Tale and The Blind Assassin is a dystopic masterpiece and a testament to Atwoods visionary power.

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Handmaids Tale Set in the visionary future of Atwoods acclaimed Oryx and Crake , The Year of the Flood is at once a moving tale of lasting friendship and a landmark work of speculative fiction.

In this second book of the MaddAddam trilogy, the long-feared waterless flood has occurred, altering Earth as we know it and obliterating most human life.

Among the survivors are Ren, a young trapeze dancer locked inside the high-end sex club Scales and Tails, and Toby, who is barricaded inside a luxurious spa.

Amid shadowy, corrupt ruling powers and new, gene-spliced life forms, Ren and Toby will have to decide on their next move, but they cant stay locked away.
