The MaddAddam Trilogy: Oryx & Crake/The Year of the Flood/MaddAddam -- Margaret

A boxed set (three trade paperbacks) of the internationally celebrated speculative fiction trilogy from one of the most visionary authors of our time, Margaret Atwood. <p/> Across three stunning novels--<i>Oryx and Crake</i>, <i>The Year of the Flood</i>, and <i>Maddaddam</i>--the best-selling, Booker Prize-winning novelist projects us into a near future that is both all too familiar and beyond our imagining. <p/> In <i>Oryx and Crake</i>, a man struggles to survive in a world where he may be the last human. In search of answers, he embarks on a journey through the lush wilderness that was so recently a great city, until powerful corporations took mankind on an uncontrolled genetic engineering ride. In <i>The Year of the Flood</i> the long-feared waterless flood has occurred, altering Earth as we know it and obliterating most human life. And in <i>Maddaddam</i> a small group of survivors band together with the Children of Crake: the gentle, bioengineered quasi-human species who will inherit this new earth. <p/> Set in a darkly plausible future shaped by plagues, floods, and genetic engineering, these three novels take us from the end of the world to a brave new beginning. Thrilling, moving, and a triumph of imagination, the Maddaddam Trilogy confirms the ultimate endurance of humanity, community, and love.<br><br><b>Author:</b> Margaret Atwood<br><b>Publisher:</b> Anchor Books<br><b>Published:</b> 08/12/2014<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Boxed Set<br><b>Weight:</b> 2.17lbs<br><b>S
