My Review: How do I feel about this book? That's a hard question. When I was reading it I liked parts of it and other parts I found to be quite slow. Some of the characters were interesting and others seemed to fade in and out of the story line without me getting a chance to know them. After reading Station Eleven I liked it but didn't love it. Ya, this is a hard one.I've read my fair share of dystopian reads and I think going into this book I had some preconceived notions about how the story would be played out. From the book description it's not necessarily a book that I would have picked up on my own but since it's being featured at the library where I work so I thought I'd give it a shot. The King Lear/travelling Shakespearean actor troop meets the apocalypse is what made me question whether this was a book for me. It seemed like an odd combination and I wondered how this troop of actors and the death on a Shakespearean stage would fit into the overall 'end of the world as we know it' story.What I did love was that there were great descriptions of Toronto and that this Canadian author kept the Canuck factor in the book. She has some very unique characters and quite a few of them take up the story at some point or other and I enjoyed seeing how their lives intertwined.But it surprised me that, for a book that focuses on a post-apocalyptic world, it wasn't nearly as raw or scary as I was expecting. This is a world that has been decimated so you'd think that there'd be rampant violence, a severe lack of food and general upheaval. There are some scenes that get a little dicey but overall this was a fairly sedate dystopian society and that surprised me. I realize that the reader is coming in a many years after the initial downfall of society but I still thought the book would be grittier. But when I step back from it I think that the author wanted to focus on people's relationships and how they dealt with this new dystopian society emotionally. It was a much more philosophical view of a dystopian world than I was expecting and the phrase 'survival is insufficient' sums it up well. I think that the author wanted to show how people, in their own ways, overcame the end of the world they knew. I just wish that her ending was a lot more substantial and rounded out the story. I definitely wanted to know what happened to some of the characters but was left hanging.There are several unique and quirky characters and sometimes it was hard to keep track of who was who - especially within the travelling troop. My issue was that it felt like the author kept them at arms length from the reader. I never felt connected to anyone and maybe that's the feeling she was going for but it bothered me. I think a major oversight was the fact that the author tells the reader that Kirsten has no memory of the first year or so after the flu wiped out most of the population and then we're never told anything else about that time. It felt like a tease. I was hoping that she'd let us know why Kirsten blocked out that time and what happened to her.In the end, the author somewhat redeemed herself as the story lines converge and it started to come together for me. Overall, I liked this book but didn't love it. It was an interesting twist on a dystopian read where it focuses on how different people survived the apocalypse but I do wish I was more engaged with the plight of the characters and that there was more action.My Rating: 3.5/5 stars** This book review, as well as hundreds of others, can be found on my blog, The Baking Bookworm where I also share my favourite recipes. **
One cold night in Toronto, in the middle of a presentation of King Lear, Arthur Leandro dies on stage. Jeevan Chaudhary, a member of the audience and a paramedic, attempts to save his life. He meets Kirsten Raymonde, an eight-year-old cast-member. What none of them know is that this is the night that the Georgian Flu begins its death march across the human world. In two weeks, most the human race will be dead. Eventually 99.9% of the human race will be gone and the old civilization will be over.The story picks up next with Kirsten now in her early twenties, walking with The Traveling Symphony - a collection of musicians and actors who stage plays for the small remnant communities that dot the region of Michigan and Toronto. They visit a community that has mutated in a strange way as it has come under the control of a religious fanatic. She has a pair of comic books featuring "Dr. Eleven" on "Station Eleven," which has a storyline about a space station/world that has carried the remnant of humanity into a dark and watery reality.Then, the story skips back to follow Arthur Leadro's life, his development as an actor, his courtship of Miranda, who spends her life drawing the Station Eleven comics, and the disappointments he creates for himself. Then, it is back to the present of the post-apocalypse as Kirsten and her group deal with the threat of the religious fanatics. And, then, back to follow the story of what happens to Jeevan. And then forward to the present and the fate of a friend of Arthur's. And then back to the past, and further information that sheds light on the characters.Some might not like the way this story is structured, but I liked the story. What I got was the sense of the world that the author was creating. As a reader who was not confined to a single point of view, I got a sense of the effect and experience of both the collapse of civilization and human life thereafter. Further, the returns to the past and the banalities of the life we take for granted - celebrities, movies, dinner parties, airplane flights, and the rest - creates a sense of melancholy for the world that is lost. This sense informs the scenes of the museum of civilization at the Severn City Airport, where passports and inoperable cell phones are put on display for the edification of people who remember life when they worked and for the younger generation who has no idea of what they are.The story worked for me. I was drawn along with curiosity to see what developed. The prose was lovely. The characters were nicely developed, particularly that of Arthur Leandro, who, in fact, never makes it into the post-apocalyptic world that is the supposedly what this story is about. The mood and tone of the story are generally somber, but it all makes for a nice change from the frantic cliches of the endless crop of zombie apocalypses.
This book makes you feel like you'll eventually get to somewhere important. But you never do. The story, like so many well-reviewed books these days, has no point. There's no heart or moral. It drifts, as though the author themself lost interest while writing it. You wait and wait to find out why the various characters' lives are connected. You wait for that point in stories like these where the individual stories merge into a satisfying ah-ha moment where you finally put the pieces together and understand where the story had been taking you. You never reach that point here. This is a very unsatisfying story.
