À propos de cet audio

 Groundhog Day meets Ling Ma’s Severance in this “brilliant” (PopSugar) and “exhilarating” (The Millions) comedic novel about two young women trying to save their friendship as the world collapses around them.

Bertie and Kate have been best friends since high school. Bertie is a semi-failed cartoonist, working for a prominent Silicon Valley tech firm. Her job depresses her, but not as much as the fact that Kate has recently decided to move from San Francisco to Los Angeles.

When Bertie’s attempts to make Kate stay fail, she suggests the next best thing: a trip to Paris that will hopefully distract the duo from their upcoming separation. The vacation is also a sort of last hurrah, coming during the ceasefire in a series of escalating world conflicts.

One night in Paris, they meet a strange man in a bar who offers them a private tour of the Louvre. The women find themselves alone in the museum, where nothing is quite as it seems. Caught up in a day that keeps repeating itself, Bertie and Kate are eventually separated, and Bertie is faced with a mystery that threatens to derail everything. In order to make her way back to Kate, Bertie has to figure out how much control she has over her future—and her past—and how to survive in an apocalypse when the world keeps refusing to end.

Bertie, Kate and Dylan are locked inside an infinite series of loops in Paris and San Fransisco as they navigate an uncertain future in an apocalyptic world in which a temporary global ceasefire has been announced. A ceasefire by whom or what, no one knows, as the earth shifts beneath their feet and anything seems possible. What happens after a civilization has collapsed? Can you attain eternal life?

End of the World House is an exquisite novel in which every scene holds the promise of a key to enter the next but never once the key to exit.

Nancy Wu's narration of Adrienne Celt's masterpiece is impeccable. Celt's voice has never been stronger or more poetic than it is at this moment, as she leads us on a multi-layered emotional journey of loss and love and what our future might contain. I promise you, you will cry.
