A God In Ruins

Kate Atkinson's dazzling Life After Life; one of the top selling adult books of 2014; explored the possibility of infinite chances; as Ursula Todd lived through the turbulent events of the last century again and again. In A God in Ruins; Atkinson turns her focus on Ursula's beloved younger brother Teddy - would-be poet; RAF bomber pilot; husband and father - as he navigates the perils and progress of the 20th century. For all Teddy endures in battle; his greatest challenge will be to face living in a future he never expected to have. A God in Ruins is a masterful companion to Life After Life; and will prove once again that Kate Atkinson is one of the finest novelists of our age.
