Description

The Leftovers by Tom Perrotta When thousands of people vanish without explanation, a community is left to pick up the pieces. For Kevin Garvey, the new mayor of Mapleton, bringing hope to his traumatised town is a daunting task. His own family has fallen apart in the wake of disaster - his wife has joined a homegrown cult and his son is under the influence of a charismatic prophet. As Jill, Kevin's daughter, struggles to cope with her new reality, she finds herself at the centre of a community torn apart by grief and uncertainty. This powerful novel explores the complexities of love, connection and loss in the face of unimaginable tragedy. Written with a rare ability to illuminate our everyday struggles, The Leftovers is a startling and thought-provoking read that will leave you questioning what it means to be human.
