Product Information
* INSTANT NATIONAL BESTSELLER * Amazon Editors' Pick for Best Book of the Year in Fiction "Visceral and haunting" ( New York Times Book Review ) · "Hopeful" ( Washington Post) · "Powerful" ( Los Angeles Times ) · "Thrilling" ( TIME ) · "Tantalizingly beautiful" ( Elle ) · "Suspenseful, atmospheric" ( Vogue ) · "Aching and poignant" ( Guardian ) · "Gripping" ( The Economist ) Franny Stone has always been the kind of woman who is able to love but unable to stay. Leaving behind everything but her research gear, she arrives in Greenland with a singular purpose: to follow the last Arctic terns in the world on what might be their final migration to Antarctica. Franny talks her way onto a fishing boat, and she and the crew set sail, traveling ever further from shore and safety. But as Franny's history begins to unspool--a passionate love affair, an absent family, a devastating crime--it becomes clear that she is chasing more than just the birds. When Franny's dark secrets catch up with her, how much is she willing to risk for one more chance at redemption? 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.

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.

With soulful prose and deep empathy, McConaghy weaves parallel stories of a woman and a world on the brink of devastation, but never without hope. 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. 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, A Most Anticipated Book ( Elle, Harper's Bazaar, Library Journal ) " Migrations is as beautiful and as wrenching as anything I've ever read.

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.

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. 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 ( Entertainment Weekly, Vogue, Time, Vulture, Elle, Good Morning America, Harper's Bazaar, Newsweek, The Millions, Library Journal, Maclean's , and more) "Enveloping, memorable...A unique specimen: if worry is the staple emotion that most climatefiction evokes in its readers, Migrations --thenovelistic equivalent of an energizing cold plunge--flutters off into moreexpansive territory." -- LATimes "[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.

With soulful prose and deep empathy, McConaghy weaves parallel stories of a woman and a world on the brink of devastation, but never without hope. 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. 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
