NATIONAL BESTSELLER From the bestselling author of The Handmaid's Tale and The Testamants this final volume of the internationally celebrated MaddAddam trilogy "has brought the previous two books together in a fitting and joyous conclusion that s an epic not only of an imagined future but of our own past" (The New York Times Book Review).
The Waterless Flood pandemic has wiped out most of the population. Toby is part of a small band of survivors, along with the Children of Crake: the gentle, bioengineered quasi-human species who will inherit this new earth.
As Toby explains their origins to the curious Crakers, her tales cohere into a luminous oral history that sets down humanity s past and points toward its future. Blending action, humor, romance, and an imagination at once dazzlingly inventive and grounded in a recognizable world, MaddAddam is vintage Atwood a moving and dramatic conclusion to her epic work of speculative fiction.

Apokalypse
mit Zitronenduft
Eine Seuche rafft die Menschheit fast gänzlich dahin, nur ein paar Ökofundamentalisten überleben und basteln in alten Lehmhütten an ihrer mehr oder minder idealen Gesellschaft. Die Kommune teilen sie sich mit Laborgeschöpfen namens Craker, die schnurren wie Kätzchen, nach Zitrone riechen und ohne List sind. Der idealen Welt dient das, hätten sie nicht die Schrulle, ständig zu singen und nach Geschichten zu verlangen. Nach der von Zeb etwa, dem smarten Untergrundkämpfer. Der letzte Teil der dystopischen MaddAddam-Trilogie, der trotz Überwachungsstaat und Umweltkatastrophe eine kuriose Leichtfüßigkeit hat für diesen Sommer.
