(Novel: 2013, Adaptation: 2022)
This mesmerising and unusual story follows Ursula Tood. It starts during a snowstorm in England in 1910 when she is born and dies before taking her first breath. In her next life, she lives. And so begins a constant cycle where she relives her life through the tumultuous events of the early 20th Century again and again.
I read this book in 2018 and it has stayed with me, haunting my thoughts on a regular basis. I highly recommend adding it to your TBR. It was adapted in 2022 and the series is on my watchlist but I know it has received critical acclaim.
What if you could live again and again, until you got it right?
On a cold and snowy night in 1910, Ursula Todd is born to an English banker and his wife. She dies before she can draw her first breath.
On that same cold and snowy night, Ursula Todd is born, lets out a lusty wail, and embarks upon a life that will be, to say the least, unusual.
For as she grows, she also dies, repeatedly, in a variety of ways, while the young century marches on towards its second cataclysmic world war.
Does Ursula's apparently infinite number of lives give her the power to save the world from its inevitable destiny? And if she can -- will she?
Darkly comic, startlingly poignant, and utterly original: this is Kate Atkinson at her absolute best.
