A provocative, urgent audiobook about time, family and how a changing planet might change our lives, from James Bradley, acclaimed author of The Resurrectionist and editor of The Penguin Book of the Ocean.
Compelling, challenging and resilient, over ten beautifully contained chapters, Clade canvasses three generations from the very near future to late this century. Central to the novel is the family of Adam, a scientist, and his wife Ellie, an artist.
Clade opens with them wanting a child and Adam in a quandary about the wisdom of this. Their daughter proves to be an elusive little girl and then a troubled teenager, and by now cracks have appeared in her parents’ marriage. Their grandson is in turn a troubled boy, but when his character reappears as an adult he’s an astronomer, one set to discover something astounding in the universe.
With great skill James Bradley shifts us subtly forward through the decades, through disasters and plagues, miraculous small moments and acts of great courage. Elegant, evocative, understated and thought-provoking, it is the work of a writer in command of the major themes of our time.

A very political writer, interested in getting a specific agenda across. I quit reading his historical books because they were becoming more, much more political persuasion rather than historically accurate. Good writer but be aware of agendas.

@pugilist- I get what you’re saying: I noticed a strenuous sympathy for the Japanese defenders in “Flags of our Fathers.” While their lot DID endure a truly awful experience, the lesson is don’t start wars against an industrial giant (duh). Maybe that’s an agenda, however, no history can avoid drawing conclusions: humans are sort of wired for that. I’ve read a number of histories by Germans- and they spend much time in “apology”, even (especially)in Albert Speer’s book “Inside the Third Reich”.
What I object to is triumphalism, that our victory was inevitable, and not because we were really good at making more bullets, beans and bandages, and getting them to the front in avalanche quantities, but because “God was on our side.” Can’t speak for the deity, but cranking out three Liberty ships every two days, and filling them with everything needed for a global war, seems pretty godlike even today. My rambling point is this: history is people stuck in events not of their own making, making the best of it, and thus earning the right to have an opinion. Now I’ll listen to this book.
