In the aftermath of a global pandemic that kill 99% of the world’s population, Station Eleven follows the expeditions of a Shakespearean theatre crew, a Hollywood star, a paparazzo and a graphic artist in their quests to keep arts and humanity alive.
This is not your usual dystopian post-apocalyptic story. It’s a journey of survival, of the breakdown of society and the sobering realisation of how fragile world balance is. The recent Covid Pandemic makes Station Eleven scarily relatable, it keeps the reader engaged in the stories of each, their moral dilemmas and their fight to save memories from a dying world.
The gentle but engaging pace makes this book a really enjoyable read that will heighten appreciation for the very small thing that make life worth living.
