LONGLISTED FOR THE INTERNATIONAL DUBLIN LITERARY AWARD 2018

Eight people take part in an ecological experiment in 1990s Arizona. Inspired by real events, The Terranauts places human behaviour under the microscope to spellbinding effect

Linda is desperate to be one of the lucky eight chosen to take part in the world’s most ambitious ecological experiment.
