Product details

The number one international bestseller. "Fans of Cloud Atlas and Never Let Me Go will love The History of Bees." - Good Housekeeping. "Dystopian and electric, this book is set to blow minds everywhere." - Stylist. "Haunting and poignant ... an important and wonderful book." - Dave Goulson, bestselling author of Bee Quest.

In the spirit of Station Eleven and Never Let Me Go, this dazzling and ambitious literary debut follows three generations of beekeepers from the past, present, and future, weaving a spellbinding story of their relationship to the bees - and to their children and one another - against the backdrop of an urgent global crisis.

England, 1851. William is a biologist and seed merchant who sets out to build a new type of beehive—one that will give both him and his children honor and fame.

United States, 2007. George is a beekeeper and fights an uphill battle against modern farming.
