Publisher's Summary

The extraordinary new dystopian novel from the author of the international best seller I'm Not Scared.

Summer has ended, but the heat will not let up. Ash has covered everything. Weeds and wheat grow around the cars abandoned in the road. Anna and Astor live in the house behind the fence, surviving in a world stripped of adults.

The rooms are piled high with rubbish. Their mother's skeleton lies perfect on the bed. And every few days, Anna must head out beyond the fence for provisions and medicine. Each time she goes, she may never come back.

A huge best seller in Italy, Anna is a story about the survival of the human spirit after the worst has happened.

Spookily well timed novel about a pandemic

One of the best narrators I've heard - extraordiary for someone who sounds so young
