'Songs for the End of the World' is the story of a handful of people living through an unfolding catastrophe. As the novel moves back and forth in time, we discover these characters' ties to one another - and to those whose lives intersect with theirs - in a web of connection and community that reveals none of us is ever truly alone. Linking them all is the mystery of the so-called ARAMIS Girl, a woman at the first infection site whose unknown identity and whereabouts cause a furor. Saleema Nawaz lives in Montreal, QC. A Dewey Diva Pick. From the author of 'Bone and Bread'.
