Inhaltsangabe
"A beautiful, dream-like, unsettling narrative in which every word, like a small jewel, feels carefully chosen, considered and placed. Rarely do debut novels come as assured and impressive as this one." (Sarah Waters, New York Times best-selling author of The Paying Guests)
Elegant, sinister and psychologically complex, After Me Comes the Flood is the haunting debut novel by the best-selling author of The Essex Serpent and Melmoth.
One hot summer's day, John Cole decides to shut his bookshop early, and possibly forever, and drives out of London to see his brother. When his car breaks down on an isolated road, he goes looking for help and finds a dilapidated house. As he approaches, a laughing woman he's never seen before walks out, addresses him by name and explains she's been waiting for him. Entering the home, John discovers an enigmatic clan of residents all of whom seem to know who he is, and also claim they have been awaiting him arrival. They seem to be waiting for something else, too - something final....
Written before Sarah Perry's ascension to an internationally best-selling author, After Me Comes the Flood is a spectacular novel of obsession, conviction and providence.
