<p><b>The No. 1 <i>Sunday Times</i> bestseller from the author of <i>A Little Life.</i><br><br>'I'm not sure I've ever missed the world of a book as much' - <i>The Observer</i><br>'Prepare to weep in public and be utterly transformed' - <i>Stylist</i></b><br><br><b><i>To Paradise</i> is a bold, brilliant novel spanning three centuries and three different versions of the elusive idea of utopia. Driven by Hanya Yanagihara's understanding of our desire to protect those we love - lovers, children, friends, family and even our fellow citizens - and the pain that ensues when we cannot.</b><br><br>In an alternate version of 1893 America, New York is part of the Free States, where people may live and love as they please (or so it seems).<br><br>In a 1993 Manhattan besieged by the AIDS epidemic, a young Hawaiian man lives with his much older, wealthier partner, hiding his troubled childhood and the fate of his father.<br><br>In 2093, in a world torn apart by plagues and governed by totalitarian rule, a powerful scientist's damaged granddaughter tries to navigate life without him - and solve the mystery of her husband's disappearance.<br><br>What unites these characters, and these Americas, are their reckonings with the qualities that make us human - fear, love, shame, loneliness - and the longing to find a place in an earthly paradise.<br><br><b>'For those captivated by Yanagihara's <i>A Little Life</i>, her next is equally gripping' - <i>Telegraph</i><br>'Not only rare . . . revolutionary' - Michael Cunningham, author of <i>The Hours</i></b></p>
