THE END OF THE WORLD.

THE START OF SOMETHING ELSE.

It's October and the Jorgensen family has received two significant pieces of news: one, Marlen, beloved father and husband, has been diagnosed with a terminal illness. Two, a cosmic blast is set to render humanity extinct within a matter of months. Preparing for the inevitable, the family navigates the time they have left together. Marlen and his wife, Hilda, have channeled their energy into improbably prophetic works of art. Hilda’s elderly father receives a longed-for visitor from his past. Her sister refuses to believe the world is ending. Her nephew has gone missing. All the while, her daughter struggles to find her way home from Berlin with the help of an oddly familiar stranger. For everyone, there’s an unsettling feeling that this unprecedented reality is something they remember.


"This novel moved me, changed me, delighted me, undid me—and, most importantly, it made me unafraid. I will hand it to the people I love most, filled with the hope that they might find what I did within its pages—and the certainty that they will." —Marissa Stapley, New York Times-bestselling author of Lucky and The Lightning Bottles
