It captures the first image of a strange new animal. Low to the ground, about the size of a badger, flat face, long trunk-like nose. Suddenly these 'mimmoths' are as common as foxes or dogs. And no one knows where they've come from.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs Alderman negotiates the territory of grief - a place with its own logic and rhythms - the mimmoths spread. From the UK east and west, to the United States, to Russia, to India. They seem harmless, but oddly intelligent. They cannot be captured, they will not take food from humans, they have their own purposes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlderman cannot shake the feeling that she has a particular connection to the creatures. Or is she just succumbing to 'mimmoth psychosis'? As the impact of the mimmoths increases, she is pulled into the cross currents of conspiracy theories and global power struggles. Have her deeply personal forms of mourning lent recent events a surreal air, or is our reality changing drastically and irrevocably?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom the award-winning author of the international bestseller, \u003ci\u003eThe Power, \u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Strangers \u003c\/i\u003eis a thrillingly original and devastatingly moving novel that blurs the lines between fiction and reality, inviting us to reconsider what it means to be human.
