A companion to Life After Life, A God in Ruins follows Teddy Todd — Ursula's beloved younger brother — through his years as a RAF pilot in World War II and the decades that follow. His survival shapes everything: his family, his choices, and the quiet heroism of an ordinary life lived in the long shadow of war.
A profound meditation on history, memory, and the fragile threads of existence, this is Kate Atkinson at her finest — layered, moving, and deeply rewarding. Complex in structure but unforgettable in impact.
Perfect for fans of Ian McEwan's Atonement and Sebastian Faulks' Birdsong. Pairs beautifully with Life After Life for a complete Atkinson set.
A paperback (2015, Transworld/Vintage) in Good condition.
