Question 7 is a masterful account that intertwines memoirs, historical essay, and global novel, questioning the fragility of our existence. Richard Flanagan writes a love letter to his parents and his island, Tasmania, showing how a series of coincidences can become the story of our existence. Winner of the 2024 Baillie Gifford Prize, this work explores the connection between historical events, such as the dropping of the atomic bomb, and the author's personal life.
