More Description "This emotionally resonant dystopian succeeds at turning the end of the world into a new beginning." - Publishers Weekly
A love story set in a bad dream about America, concerning permanent debt, secret police, making dinner, and unpaid invoices--right up until the end of the world.
It's Brooklyn. It's winter. It's so cold outside you could execute billionaires in the street about it. Sam lives with Eleanor and they are in love. He has three or four outstanding invoices that would each cover rent for a month. At some point, the President is going to make some absolutely wild announcements that will only end in doom.
In a surreal, funny, and heart-breaking version of reality, Sasha Fletcher's highly anticipated first novel occupies that rare register that manages to speak to an increasingly incomprehensible world.
Through scenes that poetically transform the mundane into the sublime and the absurd into the tragic, Be Here to Love Me at the End of the World is about the exquisite beauty of being in love in a world that is falling apart.
