Description
Arcadia is an astonishing work of imagination from Iain Pears. In Cold War England, Professor Henry Lytten writes a fantasy novel that dares to imagine a world less fraught than his own. His writing becomes intertwined with the lives of those around him.
When Rosie, a young neighbor, stumbles upon a doorway in the cellar of Lytten's home, she enters a stunning and unfamiliar bucolic landscape - remarkably like the fantasy world Lytten is creating. Her journey intersects with that of Jay, a young boy about to embark on a transformative experience.
Meanwhile, in a dystopian society where progress is controlled by a corrupt elite, brilliant scientist Angela Meerson discovers the potential of a powerful new machine. Her decision will have far-reaching consequences for all those involved.
