MaddAddam by the acclaimed author Margaret Atwood invites you into a gripping narrative that redefines survival and the art of storytelling. This riveting tale plunges you into a post-apocalyptic world, where Toby, one of the last remaining humans, navigates the aftermath of a devastating man-made plague.

In this captivating story, Toby emerges as the lone storyteller tasked with bridging the divide between the old world and the new. Her narratives draw the attention of young Blackbeard, a member of the Crakers—an engineered species designed as humanity's successors. With their original prophet, Jimmy-the-Snowman, in a comatose state, the Crakers must lean on the resourceful Zeb, who captivates Toby's heart and embodies resilience.

Key Features of MaddAddam:

  • Gripping Exploration: Delve into humanity's resilience and the profound impact of narrative on our collective future.
  • Unique Characters: Engage with a diverse cast, from clever Pigoons to the menacing Painballers, each adding depth to this survival saga.
  • Acclaimed Author: Margaret Atwood's sharp wit and insightful commentary resonate throughout, making this book a crucial addition to any literary collection.

This thought-provoking work not only captivates readers but also deeply explores themes of identity, survival, and the significance of storytelling in times of crisis. MaddAddam serves as a powerful reminder that the tales we weave may be our greatest weapon for survival, ensuring its place as an essential read in contemporary literature.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.

This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.

We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.

Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
