Postscript

From Stonewall Honoree Cory McCarthy, a heartbreaking, joyful, read-it-in-one-sitting YA novel about the last of us.

"I'm not sure the how-pocalypse changes anything. I don't think about it; this is hard enough."
This is a depopulated archipelago off the coast of Massachusetts, home to a tiny handful of sapiens sifting the remnants of civilization for scraps of comfort and joy.
There's no sense in trying to figure out exactly how humans got to this place of endless gray skies and so many mass graves-that's a very long letter no one has the heart to read again. What matters is this fleeting postscript, a strangely joyous house of bones built by an unlikely quintet of survivors.
