Аннотация
Set in Bexhill-on-Sea after a pandemic has wiped out almost the entire UK population, The Hoffmann Plague follows a year in the lives of a man and woman who meet in the aftermath, evocatively recounting their struggles to survive.
With all established infrastructure and support systems gone, they must learn new skills quickly: skills which have become unfamiliar to most people living in modern times.
By turns moving, shocking and humorous, it is a tale of ordinary people trying to build new lives in extraordinary circumstances and the practical issues they have to address.
In a lawless country where societal norms have been destroyed, they encounter other survivors – some friendly; some hostile. But do they have what it takes to survive in this harsh new world?
“Really enjoyed it. Flowed really well. Loved the detail you put into things and made me feel like I could actually survive!” Stuart R.
“Your style is quite chatty and easy to read and your descriptions are evocative: it's very easy to visualise things! You also reminded me a bit of elements of Day of The Triffids, I think in style. TBH I really liked your general style – it's engaging without being hard work.” Dee T.
“Wow! It's over. Loved it and loved the ending… What was great is we were both always looking forward to the next chapter. Brilliant. We both loved it.” Sue Z.
“Great stuff… thoroughly enjoyed it… The story is way too good not to be shared with millions of people.” Ant Z.
“I can't believe it's over! I just finished it: it was really good! And that last sentence makes me hopeful for a sequel!!” Steph L.
“The pace of the novel is about right, with the reader able to follow the characters through their journeys, both individually and combined. It feels moralistic without being prescriptive, leaving the reader to make up their own mind about where they would stand in such a circumstance.” Michael S.
