Our Take

Findley retells the Noah's Ark story from the perspective of those left behind and those brought aboard against their will. Mrs Noyes watches civilisation end and her husband cause it. A novel about environmental annihilation dressed as biblical fable — and a savage portrait of who gets to decide what survives.
