The White Desert cover

The story of a millennial couple facing life on an increasingly fragile planet, and a stirring reflection on our place in the cosmos - for fans of Martin MacInnes and Olga Ravn.

With life on earth fading to a whisper, Carlos and Aitana are faced with a decision, monumental and world-altering, about what they are prepared to sacrifice to cleave to life. While in the margins of their story there slowly forms a portrait of what life looks like after earth - of our shared fate among the stars.

Imagines a very near future in which - without nostalgia, but in a beautiful melancholic tone - we haven't forgotten who we were and who we are... A formally daring, fun, endearing, witty, stimulating novel -- Juan Pablo Villalobos
