Elmet by Fiona Mozley is a powerful and evocative debut novel that explores the complex relationships between family, community, and the natural world. Set in the rugged landscape of rural Yorkshire, the novel tells the story of a family living off the grid and outside the bounds of society. As they struggle to eke out a living in a world that seems increasingly hostile, tensions simmer beneath the surface, and violence looms on the horizon. Mozley's writing is poetic and atmospheric, with vivid descriptions of the natural world and a keen eye for the complexities of human emotion. Shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize in 2017, "Elmet" is a haunting and unforgettable novel that will stay with readers long after they turn the final page.
