About this title

Synopsis:

The author of the Booker Prize-winning Possession presents a dramatic retelling of the Norse myth about the end of the world that follows the Blitz-era evacuation of a young girl whose worldview is dramatically changed upon reading Asgard and the Gods and who witnesses the destruction of the natural world half a century later.

Product Description:

Evacuated to the countryside to escape the Blitz, the young AS Byatt derives little comfort from religion, finding solace instead in ancient legends. The award-winning author weaves together themes of war, natural disaster and reckless gods in this retelling of the Norse myth.
