She does not find the beautiful world her mother had described to her while she was still her mother’s stomach. What Alira sees is a world of fear, despair and helplessness. She hears words like social distancing, quarantine, lockdown and face mask instead of flowers, trees, children and animals. No one comes to visit her; no one brings her flowers and gifts. Meantime, the world is in a state of paralysis by the rising numbers in infection and death caused by the sinister virus. Over 30 million people have fallen victims to the virus, and close to a million are dead. The scientists have, so far, not found a formula for a medicine to treat the sick. They have not succeeded in developing a vaccine to prevent people from getting infected. Millions of children miss schools and stay confined to homes. Alira represents the 385,000 babies who were born on the same day she was born. She is among the 104 million babies born in 2020 upto September. Will the 2.1 Billion children born during the last fifteen years, become a ‘lost generation’? Or will the virus be wiped out from the face of the globe to allow humanity to lead the everyday life?

Book excerpt: A town under quarantine during the 1918 flu epidemic must reckon with forces beyond their control in a powerful, sweeping novel of morality in a time of upheaval “An American variation on Albert Camus’ The Plague.”—Chicago Tribune NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY USA TODAY AND CHICAGO TRIBUNE • WINNER OF THE JAMES FENIMORE COOPER PRIZE FOR HISTORICAL FICTION Deep in the mist-shrouded forests of the Pacific Northwest is a small mill town called Commonwealth, conceived as a haven for workers weary of exploitation. For Philip Worthy, the adopted son of the town’s founder, it is a haven in another sense—as the first place in his life he’s had a loving family to call his own. And yet, the ideals that define this outpost are being threatened from all sides. A world war is raging, and with the fear of spies rampant, the loyalty of all Americans is coming under scrutiny. Meanwhile, another shadow has fallen across the region in the form of a deadly virus striking down vast swaths of surrounding communities. When Commonwealth votes to quarantine itself against contagion, guards are posted at the single road leading in and out of town, and Philip Worthy is among them. He will be unlucky enough to be on duty when a cold, hungry, tired—and apparently ill—soldier presents himself at the town’s doorstep begging for sanctuary. The encounter that ensues, and the shots that are fired, will have deafening reverberations throughout Commonwealth, escalating until every human value—love, patriotism, community, family, friendship—not to mention the town’s very survival, is imperiled. Inspired by a little-known historical footnote regarding towns that quarantined themselves during the 1918 epidemic, The Last Town on Earth is a remarkably moving and accomplished debut.
