Description

Birnam Wood by Eleanor Catton is a novel about a group of friends who form an activist collective to plant crops in neglected spaces. For years, they struggle to make ends meet, but when a landslide closes the Korowai Pass, they see an opportunity to turn their fortunes around. The group discovers a large farm that has been abandoned due to natural disaster and proposes it to Robert Lemoine, an American billionaire with plans for an end-times bunker. As Mira Bunting and her team consider working with him, they must weigh the benefits of collaboration against the risks of losing control over their values and ideals. As tensions rise, trust becomes a crucial issue within the group, forcing them to confront the true nature of their partnership and the consequences of their actions.
