'I was sitting bolt upright in bed breathing fast and staring at the wall. The daylight wasstreaming into the motel room through the slats of the blinds. I seemed to have been awake,and asleep, for ages...'
John Hobson, a geneticist, wakes one morning to find his watch stopped at 6.12. The streets aredeserted, there are no signs of life or death anywhere, and every clock he finds has stopped- at6.12. Is Hobson the last person left on the planet?
Inventive and suspenseful, The Quiet Earth is a confronting journey into the future-and a darkpast.
