El año del diluvio

The predictions of Adam One, the affable leader of the Gardeners of God, have come true, and the Dry Flood has ravaged the planet and appears to have wiped out every trace of human life. Only two women seem to have survived the great natural catastrophe: Toby, who has barricaded himself in a luxury spa, and Ren, a young trapeze artist locked up in Tails and Scales, a distinguished club where "the cleanest slutty girls in the world work. the city". And while Toby and Ren decide what their next step will be, corrupt rulers roam the outside world and new transgenic species proliferate, threatening to destroy everything. The year of the Flood, which is tender and bleak in equal measure, reveals the brightest and most imaginative Margaret Atwood.
