The Art of Imagining Our Apocalypse Emily St John Mandel's latest novel, Exit Party, is a thought provoking exploration of the consequences of our current trajectory as a society.
It feels eerily prescient because it delves into themes of civil war and surveillance states, and acknowledges the inherent uncertainty of our reality.
Mandel's fascination with "the counter life" – small changes in choices leading to vastly different outcomes – is a recurring theme throughout her work.
