Jeff VanderMeer presents Absolution: A Southern Reach
In conversation with Emily St. John Mandel

Ten years after Annihilation comes Absolution, the surprise fourth volume in Jeff VanderMeer’s blockbuster Southern Reach series. For VanderMeer, there was never full closure to the story of Area X—there were a few mysteries that had gone unsolved, some key points of view never aired. There were stories left to tell. Structured in three parts, each recounting a new expedition, Absolution is a brilliant, beautiful, and ever-terrifying plunge into unique and fertile literary territory—the final word on one of the most provocative and popular speculative fiction series of our time. VanderMeer will be joined on-stage by Emily St. John Mandel (Station Eleven) for in-depth conversation on the world of Area X, followed by an audience Q&A and signing.
