Island  Cover Image Book Book

Island / Johanna Skibsrud.

Summary:

From the Scotiabank Giller Prize-winning author of “The Sentimentalists” comes the story of a revolution on an imaginary island, one whose socio-economic divide runs deep, where an insurrection is brewing. Over the course of a day, the lives of two women - one a rebel, one a diplomat - will be forever changed. As the past and future converge on this one day, a new world order is within reach. Part fantasy, part parable, this novel deftly explores essential questions of history and responsibility.
