Reviews
A Most Anticipated Book ( Entertainment Weekly, Vulture, Elle, Harper's Bazaar, Library Journal ) "[A] tantalizingly beautiful epic." -- Elle "You can practically hear the glaciers cracking to pieces and the shrill yelps of the circling terns." -- Vulture "[A] significant work of environmentally informed literature, both lushly written and heartbreaking." -- Library Journal "At a time when it feels like we're at the end of the world, this novel about a different kind of end of the world serves as both catharsis and escape." -- Harper's Bazaar " Migrations is as beautiful and as wrenching as anything I've ever read. This is an extraordinary novel by a wildly talented writer." -- Emily St. John Mandel , author of The Glass Hotel and Station Eleven "This novel is enchanting, but not in some safe, fairy-tale sense. Charlotte McConaghy has harnessed the rough magic that sears our souls. I recommend Migrations with my whole heart." -- Geraldine Brooks , author of The Secret Chord and March " Migrations is a wonder. I read it in a gasp. There is hope in these pages; a balm for these troubled times. Charlotte McConaghy's words cut through to the bone." -- Lara Prescott , author of The Secrets We Kept "An astounding meditation on love, trauma, and the cost of survival. A true force of a book that I read holding my breath from its start to its symphonic finish." -- Julia Fine , author of What Should Be Wild " Migrations is indeed about loss--but what makes it miraculous is that it is also about hope. Written in prose as gorgeous as the crystalline beauty of the Arctic, Migrations is deeply moving, haunting, and, yes, important." -- Caroline Leavitt , author of Pictures of You and Cruel Beautiful World "At times devastating and, at others, surprisingly, undeniably hopeful...Brimming with stunning imagery and raw emotion, Migrations is the incredible story of personal redemption, self-forgiveness and hope for the future in the face of a world on the brink of collapse." --Shelf Awareness, A Most Anticipated Book ( Elle, Harper's Bazaar, Library Journal ) " Migrations is as beautiful and as wrenching as anything I've ever read.

This is a true force of a book that I read holding my breath from its start to its symphonic finish." -- Julia Fine , author of What Should Be Wild "Set in a future when wildlife is rapidly becoming extinct, Migrations is indeed about loss--but what makes it miraculous is that it is also about both the glimpses of hope and the shattering persistence of love, if we are only brave enough to acknowledge them.

The events of Franny's journey are those of a thriller, but the gorgeous prose pulls you in and slows you down, seeping into your soul like the pull of the moon and the ocean tides." --Laurie Gillman, East City Bookshop, Washington, DC "Few books have so completely enveloped me into the character's life (and entwining with mine as well) as Migrations . Reminiscent of Annie Proulx's honest and raw words , this story is poetic and melancholic, with bursts of insight." --Michelle Bear, Edmonds Bookshop, Edmonds, WA " Migrations has intrigue, a love twist, a mystery, and more, but most importantly an impressing, urgent need to share that we are destroying our natural world. I couldn't put this book down . This novel truly made me look about and actually see what is around us, and what the crows as they fly past my window are trying to say to us." --Annie Philbrick, Bank Square Books, Mystic, CT "Enthralling. The book tells us that the clues to life are 'hidden everywhere,' and indeed they are as those who cross the landscapes of this exceptional book will discover." --Kenny Brechner, DDG Booksellers, Farmington, ME, A Most Anticipated Book ( Entertainment Weekly, Vogue, Vulture, Elle, Harper's Bazaar, Library Journal ) "[A] tantalizingly beautiful epic." -- Elle "You can practically hear the glaciers cracking to pieces and the shrill yelps of the circling terns." -- Vulture "Suspenseful, atmospheric...As much a mystery as an odyssey." -- Vogue "At a time when it feels like we're at the end of the world, this novel about a different kind of end of the world serves as both catharsis and escape." -- Harper's Bazaar "[A] significant work of environmentally informed literature, both lushly written and heartbreaking." -- Library Journal "Transfixing, gorgeously precise...[The] evocation of a world bereft of wildlife is piercing; Franny's otherworldliness is captivating, and her extreme misadventures and anguished secrets are gripping." -- Booklist (starred review) " Migrations is as beautiful and as wrenching as anything I've ever read.

This novel''s prose soars with its transporting descriptions of the planet''s landscapes and their dwindling inhabitants, and contains many wonderful meditations on our responsibilities to our earthly housemates ...Migrations is a nervy and well-crafted novel, one that lingers long after its voyage is over. It''s a story about our mingling sorrows, both personal and global, and the survivor''s guilt that will be left in their wake." --The New York Times Book Review "Powerful...Vibrant...Unique...If worry is the staple emotion that most climate fiction evokes in its readers, Migrations --the novelistic equivalent of an energizing cold plunge--flutters off into more expansive territory...McConaghy has a gift for sketching out enveloping, memorable characters using only the smallest of strokes... Migrations , rather than struggle to convince readers of some plan of environmental action, instead puts humans in their place." -- LA Times "[A] tantalizingly beautiful epic." -- Elle "You can practically hear the glaciers cracking to pieces and the shrill yelps of the circling terns." -- Vulture "Suspenseful, atmospheric...As much a mystery as an odyssey." -- Vogue "Gorgeous...A personal reckoning that cuts right to theheart. This beautiful novel is an ode--if not an elegy--to an endangered planetand the people and places we love." --Literary Hub "At a time when it feels like we''re at the end of the world, this novel about a different kind of end of the world serves as both catharsis and escape." -- Harper''s Bazaar "An ode to our disappearing natural world." -- Newsweek "An exceptional novel that is both elegy and page-turning thriller." -- Maclean''s Magazine "[ Migrations ] could be taking place in two years or 20 years, but it could just as well be happening today...A consummate blend of issue and portrait, warning and affirmation, this heartbreaking, lushly written work is highly recommended." -- Library Journal (starred review) "Transfixing, gorgeously precise...[The] evocation of a world bereft of wildlife is piercing; Franny''s otherworldliness is captivating, and her extreme misadventures and anguished secrets are gripping." -- Booklist (starred review) " Migrations is as beautiful and as wrenching as anything I''ve ever read.

Epic and intimate, heartbreaking and galvanizing, Charlotte McConaghy's Migrations is an ode to a disappearing world and a breathtaking page-turner about the possibility of hope against all odds., For readers of Station Eleven and Everything I Never Told You , a novel set on the brink of catastrophe, as a young woman chases the world's last birds--and her own final chance for redemption. A will is a powerful thing, and mine has been called terrible. Franny Stone has always been a wanderer. By following the ocean's tides and the birds that soar above, she can forget the losses that have haunted her life. But when the wild she so loves begins to disappear, Franny can no longer wander without a destination. She arrives in remote Greenland with one purpose: to find the world's last flock of Arctic terns and follow them on their final migration. She convinces Ennis Malone, captain of the Saghani , to take her onboard, winning over his salty, eccentric crew with promises that the birds she is tracking will lead them to fish. As the Saghani fights its way south, Franny's new shipmates begin to realize that the beguiling scientist in their midst is not who she seems. Battered by night terrors, accumulating a pile of letters to her husband, and dead set on following the terns at any cost, Franny is full of dark secrets. When the story of her past begins to unspool, Ennis and his crew must ask themselves what Franny is really running toward--and running from. Propelled by a narrator as fierce and fragile as the terns she is following, Migrations is a shatteringly beautiful ode to the wild places and creatures now threatened. But at its heart, it is about the lengths we will go, to the very edges of the world, for the people we love.
