What We Can Know: A Novel by Ian McEwan is a genre-bending literary novel that combines mystery, speculative fiction, romance and reflections on history, memory and humanity's future.
The story moves between 2014 and 2119, where scholar Thomas Metcalfe investigates the disappearance of a poem that was read only once more than a century earlier.
His search gradually uncovers tangled relationships, secrets, betrayal and a crime that challenges his understanding of the people and history he has been studying.
The novel also examines climate change, the preservation of knowledge, the reliability of history and what future generations may think of the world we leave behind.
It will appeal to readers who enjoy intelligent literary mysteries, dystopian fiction, historical questions and thought-provoking stories about human relationships.
For readers in Kenya, it offers an engaging contemporary literary title from the bestselling author of Atonement.
LIBRAZE makes this paperback available to Kenyan readers with convenient delivery options.
