À propos de cet audio

 Specially adapted for audio by the author.

Fleabag meets I Am Legend in this extraordinary novel of one woman's survival in the face of the end of the world. Who will she be now that she is completely alone?

THE END OF EVERYTHING WAS HER BEGINNING

It's November 2022. The human race has been wiped out by the 6DM virus (Six Days Maximum - the longest you've got before your organs disintegrate and you melt from the inside out). The end of the world as we know it.

Yet someone is still alive. Alone in a new world of burning cities, rotting corpses and ravenous rats, one woman has survived. A woman who has spent her whole life compromising what she wants and hiding how she feels to meet other people's expectations. From her career to her relationships, to what she wears and where she lives, she's made a lifetime of decisions to fit what other people want her to be.

But with no one else left, who will she become now that she's completely alone?

Ce que les critiques en disent

I adored this book . . . It's about who you are with nobody to witness you, what it means to be human, and how to live (the answer is getting plastered in Harrod's, something we can all relate to)
Brilliant. Creepy, witty, laugh-out-loud and shudder-inducing (Harriet Walker, author of The New Girl)
A fresh, frank, funny and surprisingly uplifting book about the end of the world
Finished this last night and haven't stopped thinking about it since! Possibly my fave read of 2020 - sharp, funny, emotional and a refreshingly different take on a post-apocalyptic world
Really fun . . . like a dystopian Bridget Jones' Diary with echoes of Shaun of the Dead
Scary, emotional - and truly a novel for our times!
I haven't been so consumed by a book for a long time. This is a masterpiece of modern fiction, which I have raced through it in a few days. It has consumed my thoughts and will stay with me for a long time
This post-apocalyptic rollercoaster ride is full of belly-aching humour and the touching tale of a woman faced with the end of the world
This dystopian novel is very funny, super-gory but a testament to the human spirit, which is also oddly life-affirming
I inhaled it in two sittings
Fast-paced, tragic, wholesome and laugh-out-loud funny, Clift's debut has left me grateful for the little things, excited for what else she has to offer - and making plans for my apocalypse bunker
Thoroughly enjoyable and warmly recommended. Think of it as a literary version of 28 Days Later: terrifying, convincingly constructed, heart-pounding at times, often blackly funny
Amazing. Unsettling and dark and SO clever. One of the most unnerving books I've ever read
If you want something super original and mad and at times, both moving and VERY FUNNY, this is it
Last One At The Party is brilliant and creepy, yet surprisingly funny and feminist
A compelling, engaging, enthralling novel that keeps the reader turning the pages
Funny but harrowing, unflinching and uplifting and so cinematic. I really loved it
You need to read this one. Darkly witty, but also deeply moving, this is a brilliant debut
A phenomenal book!!!! I've just finished it and am blown away . . . original, brutal, funny and hugely addictive! I just know I'm not going to be able to stop thinking about it for a long time
Bethany Clift's Last One at the Party stands out as a bold and humorous take on the [pandemic-based fiction] genre. (Bea Carvalho)
Tense
Funny and profanity-laden, you could call this "Bridget Jones Does the Apocalypse"
A true pandemic page-turner, with a satisfactorily chilling end . . .
Plenty of style, originality and verve
Clift's novel is a riotous, black-humoured tonic to get you through this latest national lockdown

I am a grown a** man who has spent the last 6 hours and 40 minutes listening to this book with tears in my eyes I still have 3 hours an 20 min left in the book. I had to take a break this book It's beautifully written brutal, Compelling, sad in ways you cant understand if you have not read it. You should read it, everyone should. This book should win a Pulitzer.

Brutal, Beautiful,

Very well written, fantastic narration; a relentlessly grim storyline that is fleetingly lightened with humorous moments. Overall, however, The Last One At The Party is heartbreaking. Yet, in spite of this, I highly recommend this book. .

Well...that was depressing.
