The Age of Miracles has been translated into 27 languages, was a finalist for the Barnes & Noble Discover Award, and has been optioned for a television series by AMC. It’s a big, speculative book, but at heart, it’s a simple human drama, told through the eyes of an observant adolescent girl. This powerful debut follows a young girl and her family, who awake one morning to discover that the rotation of the Earth has suddenly begun to slow, stretching the length of the 24-hour day and throwing the natural world into disarray. Karen Thompson Walker is the author of the New York Times bestseller, T he Age of Miracles (2012), which was named one of the best books of the year by People, O: The Oprah Magazine, and Publishers Weekly.
