WINNER OF THE ORWELL PRIZE FOR FICTION 2021

LONGLISTED FOR THE WOMEN'S PRIZE 2021

A once-in-a-generation series, Ali Smith's Seasonal quartet is a tour-de-force about love, time, art, politics, and how we live now.

'A maestra's portrait of her age . . . remarkable' Guardian

In the present, Sacha knows the world's in trouble. Her brother Robert just is trouble.

Their mother and father are having trouble. Meanwhile the world's in meltdown - and the real meltdown hasn't even started yet. In the past, a lovely summer.

A different brother and sister know they're living on borrowed time. This is a story about people on the brink of change. They're family, but they think they're strangers.

So: where does family begin? And what do people who think they've got nothing in common have in common? Summer.
