"Andrew Forbes's exquisitely rendered prose makes The Diapause both realistic and futuristic, devastating even while it is oddly hopeful. Vast and intimate, the novel absorbs and grips. I cannot shake its central image: the strange little noodles, the mysterious worms who seem to be dancing in the moments before catastrophe." --Liz Harmer, author of Strange Loops When ten-year-old Gabriel and his parents retire to his late grandfather's disused cabin to wait out a pandemic, the big, dangerous world seems very far away, and Gabriel enjoys the freest summer of his young life. But tensions begin to surface, testing the family unit, and resulting in consequences that he will spend his life attempting to unravel. Spanning nearly a half-century, The Diapause is a literary-speculative-fiction novel about the near future, family, isolation, heartbreak, climate change, how we keep each other safe, and all the things we don't know about the people we know best. Part White Fang , part Station Eleven , The Diapause is a novel about how the things we seek are often the things we didn't know we'd lost.
