BEWILDERMENT - Richard Powers

~ Standard Hardcover

Richard Powers (bestselling author of The Overstory) presents Bewilderment, a heartrending new novel that asks an essential question: "How can we tell our children the truth about this beautiful, imperiled planet?"

With its soaring descriptions of the natural world, its tantalizing vision of life beyond, and its account of a father and son’s ferocious love, Bewilderment is Richard Powers' most intimate and moving book yet as it offers rich commentary on the complex, often mystifying intersections between science, popular culture, and politics. 

“[A] deeply moving and brilliantly original novel.” -- 2021 Booker Prize Jury
