Leave the World Behind is a magnetic novel about two families, strangers to each other, who are forced together on a long weekend gone terribly wrong . . . 

Suspenseful, provocative, and keenly attuned to the complexities of parenthood, race, and class, Leave the World Behind explores how our closest bonds are reshaped (and unexpected new ones forged) in moments of crisis.

"Leave the World Behind is the perfect title for a book that opens with the promise of utopia and travels as far from that dream as our worst fears might take us.  It is the rarest of books: a genuine thriller, a brilliant distillation of our anxious age, and a work of high literary merit that deserves a place among the classics of dystopian literature." -- Washington Post
