On a reassuringly sunny summer day, Amanda, an account director in\nadvertising; Clay, a college professor; and their children, Archie, 15, and\nRose, 13, make their way from Brooklyn to a luxury home (swimming pool! hot\ntub! marble countertops!) in a remote area of Long Island they\u0027ve rented for a\nfamily vacation. Shortly after they arrive, however, the family\u0027s holiday is\ninterrupted by a knock on the door: The house\u0027s owners, a prosperous older\nblack couple, George Washington and his wife, Ruth\u003cspan style=\"\"\u003e, \u003c/span\u003ehave\nshown up unannounced because New York City has been plunged into a blackout and\ntheir Park Avenue high-rise apartment didn\u0027t feel safe. Soon it becomes clear\nthat the blackout is a symptom (or is it a cause?) of something larger and\nnothing is safe. Has there been a nuclear or climate disaster, a war, a\nterrorist act, a bomb? Alam\u0027s story unfolds like a dystopian fever dream\ncloaked in the trappings of a dream vacation: Why do hundreds of deer show up\nin the house\u0027s well-maintained backyard or a flock of bright-pink flamingos\nfrolic in the family pool and then fly away? What is the noise, loud enough to\ncrack glass, that comes, without warning, once and then, later, repeatedly? Is\nit safer to go back to the city, to civilization, or to remain away, in a world\napart? As they search for answers and adjust to what increasingly appears to be\na confusing new normal, the two families, one black, one white; one older, one\nyounger; one rich, one middle-class, are compelled to find community amid\ncalamity, to come together to support each other and survive. Alam shows an\nimpressive facility for getting into his characters\u0027 heads and an enviable\nempathy for their moral shortcomings, emotional limitations, and failures of\nimagination. The result is a riveting novel that thrums with suspense yet\nultimately offers no easy answers, disappointing those who crave them even as\nit fittingly reflects our time. Addressing race, risk, retreat, and the ripple\neffects of a national emergency, Alam\u0027s novel is just in time for this moment.\u003co:p\u003e\u003c/o:p\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCopies of the book are available on Libby and Hoopla and may\nalso be reserved for pickup at the library.\u003co:p\u003e\u003c/o:p\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eClick\u0026nbsp;\u003ca href=\"https://us02web.zoom.us/j/85288456506\" title=\"\" target=\"_self\"\u003eHERE\u003c/a\u003e\u0026nbsp;to connect or dial in by your location 1 646 558\n8656\u003co:p\u003e\u003c/o:p\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMeeting ID:\u003cspan style=\"\"\u003e\u0026nbsp; \u003c/span\u003e852 8845\n6506\u003co:p\u003e\u003c/o:p\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePasscode: 929746\u003co:p\u003e\u003c/o:p\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003c/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\u0027clearfix\u0027\u003e\u003c/div\u003e\u003cspan class=\u0027branch\u0027\u003ePort Washington Public Library\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\u0027item\u0027\u003e\u003cdiv class=\u0027title\u0027\u003e\u003ca href=\u0027https://pwpl.evanced.info/signup/eventdetails?eventid=60630\u0026lib=0\u0026return= \u0027 target=\u0027_parent\u0027\u003eZombie Make-Up Workshop\u003c/a\u003e\u003c/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\u0027time\u0027\u003e7:00 PM - 9:00 PM\u003cspan id=\u0027eventdate\u0027 class=\u0027date\u0027\u003e10/27/2021\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\u0027clearfix\u0027\u003e\u003c/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\u0027description\u0027\u003eGet ready for Halloween and learn about zombies while transforming yourself into a creature using latex, face paint and tissue paper.
