Neffy, a disgraced and desperately indebted twenty-seven-year-old marine biologist, registers for an experimental vaccine trial in London--perhaps humanity's last hope for a cure. Though isolated from the chaos outside, she and the other volunteers--Rachel, Leon, Yahiko, and Piper--cannot hide from the mistakes that led them there.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e As London descends into chaos outside the hospital windows, Neffy befriends Leon, who before the pandemic had been working on a controversial technology that allows users to revisit their memories. She withdraws into projections of her past--a childhood bisected by divorce, a recent love affair, her obsessive research with octopuses, and the one mistake that ended her career. The lines between past, present, and future begin to blur, and Neffy is left with defining questions: Who can she trust? Why can't she forgive herself? How should she live, if she survives?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Claire Fuller's \u003cem\u003eThe Memory of Animals\u003c\/em\u003e is an ambitious, deeply imagined work of survival and suspense, grief and hope, consequences and connectedness that asks what truly defines us--and to what lengths we will go to rescue ourselves and those we love.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eClaire Fuller\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eOur Endless Numbered Days, \u003c\/i\u003e which won the Desmond Elliott Prize; \u003ci\u003eSwimming Lessons; Bitter Orange;\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eUnsettled Ground, \u003c\/i\u003e which won the Costa Novel Award and was a finalist for the Women's Prize for Fiction.
