Description:
"Birnam Wood is fantastic. It's a national independent best seller and international best seller." It is as good as it gets as a character-driven, multilayered thriller. It would have pleased Ruth Rendell. What a treat! A work with beautiful textures. “A generational cri de coeur,” according to Stephen King A complex exciting read . . . Birnam Wood almost made me happy to laugh. The entire thing squeaks. This book could be made into a movie, and Quentin Tarantino could too. Birnam Wood is a gripping thriller with high drama and kaleidoscopic insight into what drives us to survive written by The New York Times and Booker Prize winner Dwight Garner.
Birnam Wood is traveling...
On the South Island of New Zealand, a landslide has closed the Korowai Pass, isolating the town of Thorndike and abandoning a substantial farm. The fiasco presents a chance for Birnam Wood, an undeclared, unregulated, at times criminal, once in a while humanitarian guerrilla cultivating aggregate that plants crops any place nobody will take note. The group has struggled to make a profit for years. A chance at finally being solvent would come with occupation of the Thorndike farm.
However, the mysterious American billionaire Robert Lemoine is also interested in the location: When he spots Mira, the founder of Birnam, on the property, he tells her that he has snatched it up to build his bunker for the end times. Both Birnam Wood and Mira pique his interest; Lemoine and the group appear to share enemies, despite their political differences. But is he trustworthy to Birnam? Can they trust one another as their ideologies and ideals are put to the test?
A grasping spine chiller from the Booker Prize-winning writer of The Illuminators, Eleanor Catton's Birnam Wood is Shakespearean in its theatrics, Austenian in its mind, and, as both influences, captivated by what makes us what our identity is. It is a mesmerizing and unflinching examination of the human impulse to ensure our own survival, a brilliantly constructed study of intentions, actions, and consequences.
