Good Morning, Midnight (Brooks-Dalton)

 

Book Reviews
[A] beautifully written, sparse post-apocalyptic novel that explores memory, loss and identity. The narrative moves seamlessly between Augustine (Augie), a 78-year-old scientist at an observatory at the top of the Arctic archipelago, and Sullivan (Sully), a mission specialist on a deep space flight to Jupiter.
Nancy Hightower - Washington Post


Brooks-Dalton’s prose lights up the page in great swathes, her dialogue sharp and insightful, and the high-concept plot drives a story of place, elusive love, and the inexorable yearning for human contact.... [M]emorable characters explore complex questions that resonate with the urgency of a glimpse into the void.
Publishers Weekly


Two scientists in remote locations must navigate the sudden loss of human life on Earth.... Brooks-Dalton is...at her best when writing about the epic settings that anchor the book.... However, both the plot and the writing itself frequently fall into...an apocalyptic soap opera set in vividly imagined environments.
