n nMigrations is as beautiful and as wrenching as anything Ive ever read. This is an extraordinary novel by a wildly talented writer. --Emily St. John Mandel n nI recommend Migrations with my whole heart. --Geraldine Brooks n nFor fans of Flight Behavior and Station Eleven, a novel set on the brink of catastrophe, as a young woman chases the worlds last birds--and her own final chance for redemption. n nFranny Stone has always been a wanderer. By following the oceans tides and the birds that soar above, she can forget the losses that have haunted her life. But when the wild she loves begins to disappear, Franny can no longer wander without a destination. She arrives in remote Greenland with one purpose: to find the worlds last flock of Arctic terns and track their final migration. She convinces Ennis Malone, captain of the Saghani, to take her onboard, winning over his eccentric crew with promises that the birds will lead them to fish. n nAs the Saghani fights its way south, Frannys dark history begins to unspool. Battered by night terrors, accumulating a pile of unsent letters, and obsessed with pursuing the terns at any cost, Franny is full of secrets. When her quest threatens the safety of the entire crew, Franny must ask herself what she is really running toward--and running from. n nPropelled by a narrator as fierce and fragile as the terns she is following, Migrations is both an ode to our threatened world and a breathtaking page-turner about the lengths we will go for the people we love.n
