About this audiobook

FROM THE THREE-TIME NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST AND
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF FATES AND FURIES AND MATRIX

Part of a loose trilogy based on the end of empire, The Vaster Wilds is the story of a young girl who is servant to a minister and his young mistress, and in charge of their young daughter Bess. On an epic voyage across the Atlantic, ship-wrecked, far from home and fighting for survival, the protagonist of Lauren Groff's extraordinary new novel must endure but also find meaning in the journey.

Praise for MATRIX:
'Lush, gripping and ferocious' MADELINE MILLER
'Full of passion, wisdom and magic' SARAH WATERS
'Gorgeous, sensual, addictive' SARA COLLINS
