Hamilton Cain, Oprah Daily n nFrom the New York Times-bestselling author of Exit West, a story of love, loss, and rediscovery in a time of unsettling change. n nOne morning, a man wakes up to find himself transformed. Overnight, Anderss skin has turned dark, and the reflection in the mirror seems a stranger to him. At first he shares his secret only with Oona, an old friend turned new lover. Soon, reports of similar events begin to surface. Across the land, people are awakening in new incarnations, uncertain how their neighbors, friends, and family will greet them.Some see the transformations as the long-dreaded overturning of the established order that must be resisted to a bitter end. In many, like Anderss father and Oonas mother, a sense of profound loss and unease wars with profound love. As the bond between Anders and Oona deepens, change takes on a different shading: a chance at a kind of rebirth--an opportunity to see ourselves, face to face, anew. n nIn Mohsin Hamids lyrical and urgent prose (O Magazine), The Last White Man powerfully uplifts our capacity for empathy and the transcendence over bigotry, fear, and anger it can achieve.n
