Meridian

Matthew and Greaves belong together . . .

But somehow, other people’s stories always seem to get in the way.

Meridian is about one phenomenal love affair in search of the right ending. We follow these two men across a cornucopia of possible lives, from a near-future dystopia to the trenches of World War I Europe, from the American Wild West to the scene of a modern-day high school shooting, from deep space to contemporary Sydney harbour, all while fighting for their love to find its way.

Patrick Ness’ transgressive and tender-hearted novel will sweep you away. It gets to the crux of the question: who gets to tell our stories? And who gets to write the ending?
