Like Robert Macfarlane rewritten by Cormac McCarthy. TelegraphBeckett doing Beowulf. London Review of Books One thousand years from now, the sole inhabitants of a small island a group no larger than an extended family are living in a postcivilised world. They are perhaps the Earths only human survivors.But lurking outside their isolated community is a figure in red, an emissary from another way of life a virtual place of refuge and security, of escape from the dangers of a newly wild world. The visitor calls it Alexandria. A work of radical and matchless imagination, Paul Kingsnorths new novel is a mythical, polyphonic drama driven by elemental themes of community versus the self, the mind versus the body, machine over man whether to put your faith in the present or the future.Set on the far side of the climate apocalypse, Alexandria completes the Buckmaster Trilogy, which began with Kingsnorths prizewinning The Wake.
