Is it science fiction? And it’s accompanied by fear, wondering what will be left of the lives we led, if and when we return to them.

Alam’s descriptions and details immerse you in his world; his character descriptions are almost repulsive in their beauty. In Leave the World Behind, Amanda and Clay drive out to a remote luxury Airbnb in Long Island for a vacation, along with their kids Archie, 15, and Rose, 13.They are a middle-to-upper-middle class family who live and Brooklyn. It’s different for everyone: the last time they went to work in person, the last time they hugged a beloved family member or friend, the last time they went to a favorite bar or restaurant. On the surface, it’s the story of a married couple and their children facing a disastrous event. And maybe that will get us through. The couple swims and cooks and makes love, reveling in the silence, the opportunity to find themselves once again without the background noise of their regular existence.

The world as we knew it changed suddenly this year. bring with them bad tidings: There’s a blackout along the East Coast, no one knows why, and nothing is working. “This didn’t seem to her like the sort of house where black people lived,” Amanda thinks to herself shortly after meeting the Washingtons.

Alam sprinkles in tidbits about what’s happening in the rest of the world — information the characters are unaware of — that underscore how serious their plight is.
