About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
A dark past. An impossible journey. The will to survive.
How far would you go for love? Franny Stone is determined to go to the end of the earth, following the last of the Arctic terns on what may be their final migration to Antarctica.
As animal populations plummet and commercial fishing faces prohibition, Franny talks her way onto one of the few remaining boats heading south. But as she and the eccentric crew travel further from shore and safety, the dark secrets of Franny's life begin to unspool. A daughter's yearning search for her mother. An impulsive, passionate marriage. A shocking crime. Haunted by love and violence, Franny must confront what she is really running towards - and from.
The Last Migration is a wild, gripping and deeply moving novel from a brilliant young writer. From the west coast of Ireland to Australia and remote Greenland, through crashing Atlantic swells to the bottom of the world, this is an ode to the wild places and creatures now threatened and an epic story of the possibility of hope against all odds.

"An extraordinary novel...as beautiful and as wrenching as anything I've ever read." (Emily St. John Mandel)

At once sad and hopeful
Incredibly well performed tale of finding hope in a dystopia future. One of the best books on the realities of environmental destruction and the future we could be facing. Perfectly interwoven with a personal tale of grief, loss and finding meaning and hope.

Loss; on personal and global level written with great feeling
This book will stay with me a while. It deals with climate change on a very real and personal level. Deeply sad, yet astonishingly hopeful. Keep tissues handy.
