A scarily realistic take on the end of the world. Beautifully and concisely written with finely drawn characters. Clay is especially compelling. We all know someone like this or maybe, he is “us.â€

This is a very weird time to read a book about the end of the world — but this is a very good book about the end of the world.A striving Manhattan almost-but-not-quite power couple rents a luxurious home near the Hamptons for their vacation. On the third day, late at night, an older Black couple shows up at the house, claiming to be its owners, claiming that something has happened in the city. Is the world ending? (Spoiler alert: seems to be.)The story is about how civilization falls away, and it begins with a meticulous accounting of an ordinary family in its final minutes: the teenaged children captivated by their phones “like a bulbous flute hypnotizes a cobra”, the mother doing a grocery run, with a very detailed list of every single thing she bought (riveting because you somehow know you are watching the last acts of an old world, so every detail matters), a (last, but they don’t know it) day at the beach. Everything is fine. But IS everything fine? Buried in the sentences, references to global warming, erratic stock markets, disrupted democracy, a warning that it was NOT all fine, they were just pretending it was, until they could not pretend any more.It’s brilliantly written. I read it in less than a day — easy, because it’s short. It reads like a super-literary version of the first 75 pages of the Stand, the time right as the virus begins. The omniscient narration is a master class; the characters are completely in the dark about what is happening, but the narrator.

What a fascinating and incredibly unnerving novel. What begins as a novel discussing race and privilege slowly transforms into a rumination on living in ~Pandemic Times TM~ and the ending of ways of life as we know it, which is particularly intriguing given that, from what I understand, Alam began this novel before the reality of COVID-19 had settled.If you are interested in the nitty-gritty of disasters in your fiction, however, I would steer clear of this one: part of what Alam does so brilliantly is to capture the fear of not knowing what is going on, and what impact it may have (for you, for your loved ones, and for the world) as our characters enter into a state of total isolation, without access to anything but one another (and even that reassurance begins to dissipate). If you’re willing to get on that thought train (or, more accurately let that all-too-real thought train into your fiction reading) I would highly recommend giving this a go.Thank you to Ecco (Harper Collins) for providing me a free early e-copy of this work through Netgalley. Leave the World Behind is out now.

Wow. Just, wow. That could be it, the whole review. I’ll say a bit more even though being longlisted for the National Book Award should be enough to convince anyone to read this book. This is the story of one family’s vacation, interrupted by the arrival of the rented vacation home’s rightful owners. Why the owners return is a question best answered by reading the book. Really, read the book. I don’t want to give anything away so that’s all you get for a synopsis.Rumann Alam does an outstanding job of keeping the reader engrossed in two parallel stories, one happening in and around the vacation home and one happening everywhere else, without actually changing the setting of the story. Is this a thriller? Kind of. I would call it a modern horror story. It definitely terrified me. Don’t let that stop you from reading it though.Who’s this book written for? Everyone. You’ll be better off for reading Leave the World Behind.

I can truly say this book is unlike any I have read before. Amanda and Clay take their 2 children and head out on vacation. They have rented a house and are enjoying their vacation when in the middle of the night a knock on the door startles them. It’s G.H. and his wife Ruth who are the house’s owners and they come with a tale of a major black out all along the east coast. Can they stay there with them in the in-law quarters? Amanda and Clay’s vacation goes from wonderful to scary with the outside world shut down-no phones ,tv, or radio. What is going on in the world? Terrorist attack? WW3? Will they all be safe at the vacation house? This is a book I read in one evening as I NEEDED to know what was going on!!! I received an advanced readers copy and all opinions are my own.

This was a very interesting book, though I’m still not quite sure what I just read. Part of me feels like the point of it went way over my head. It definitely reads like a thriller, and I had a hard time putting it down, as I was desperate to get to the end and find out exactly what was going on. As I was getting nearer and nearer the end, I started to suspect that I may not get the answers I was looking for.This is the story of two (unrelated) families that end up spending a weekend in a house together when the world is going a little bit haywire. Clay, Amanda and their kids have rented a home in a remote area to spend a week out of the city, a place where they can “leave the world behind”. They get unexpected visitors, G.H. and Ruth Washington, who are the owners of the home. The Washington’s end up staying in the home as well, and things are rather interesting from there on out.I think because it read like a thriller, my main focus was on getting answers about what was happening, what was causing all of the weird things to happen. However, in looking back (and honestly, in reading other reviews), I realize it was also a story about class, parenthood, gender roles, and race. It goes a bit deeper than what I was reading it as, and looking at it from that perspective definitely changes things a bit.It definitely kept my attention throughout and I had a very hard time stepping away from this book, even when I needed to. That said, I am still not sure what I thought of.

This is a book that was recommended by a friend. SNF not my typical read, however, this was a wonderful read focusing on hoe our reliance on technology has obliterated our reliance on ourselves. Beautifully written. I have found a new favorite author.

Leave the World Behind by Rumaan AlamHang on to your seats, especially if you are reading this during our present pandemic. Alam has a winner here in this apocalyptic novel of two families caught in its onslaught.I generally read two to three books at a time, and I kept putting the others down to go back to this one. The author has this uncanny ability to not only drag the reader in, but to add insight to future events of the story, as it goes, that the characters cannot see or predict. I loved that!!Central to the tale are two New York couples and the one couple’s two teenage children. Unusual circumstances brought them together and necessity made them companions, if not friends. The dialog is spot on, the story grows more eerie as it goes and is very well written. Five stars from this reviewer for a fabulous story!My sincere thanks to #HarperCollins and #NetGalley for an ARC for my review.

There is instant emotional energy to this book. I understood who the characters were from their insecure inner thoughts and their aspirational surroundings. Within their car, driving out of Manhattan – a family setting out on an end-of-summer taste-of-the good life vacation. Astute, darkly comical, and terrifying at once, this is Rumaan Alam’s novel LEAVE THE WORLD BEHIND.Rumaan creates an ambiance with a deftness of detail. Each scene on point, a grocery list in particular, made me laugh out loud, I’m certain it will go down in literary history. Amanda and Clay, together with their children, settle into a tastefully appointed rental house in the Hamptons. A knock on the door late the first evening startles them at this remote location. An older couple, claiming to be the owners of the house, who have just fled the city due to a blackout, are seeking refuge. Alarmed, they are hesitant and untrusting of the unannounced visitors.What transpires is suspenseful. Everyone is on edge. The atmosphere changes and it becomes a tense dance between strangers.There is an astonishing turn of events. It’s like watching your worst nightmare, or perhaps not so much, as we are becoming immune to the distress of today’s media coverage. You’re left wondering how each character will react. Will he be a stand-up guy? Will she show her true colors? People can talk the talk, but when things turn chaotic, you never know.LEAVE THE WORLD BEHIND is a fantastic exploration of fight or flight in an eeril.
