The world is on fire. And what will you do?
In a city rocked by global catastrophe, home-grown terrorism, shortages and wildfires, Cass is quietly raising three small children by herself. Her husband, Nathaniel, has left to serve as a medic in a war overseas.
As life in the city becomes increasingly impossible, Cass knows she can no longer wait for Nathaniel’s return. Packing up their lives, she and the children set off in search of a place of greater safety.
But Cass will learn that not all promises and not all sanctuaries are what they seem – and as the fires around them begin to close in, she’ll discover just how far she’ll go for her children in a world teetering on apocalypse.
Sensual, claustrophobic and vivid, Briefly Very Beautiful announces the arrival of a major new talent, painting an unforgettable portrait of a mother trying to hold her family together.

批評家のレビュー
Instantly immersive, beautifully imagined, this is an unflinching but inspiring story about some things we're going to lose, and other things we must never lose (LEE CHILD)
The best novel I have read this year ... In the tradition of haunting dystopian fiction by women (Doris Lessing, Ursula K. Le Guin, Margaret Atwood), Briefly Very Beautiful is a poetic and sensual page-turner that perfectly captures motherhood on the brink of apocalypse
Dineen is an extraordinary writer
Impossible to put down ... Hauntingly realistic, disturbing, stylish, raw and urgent
A disturbing but ultimately hopeful dystopian novel
A haunting vision of our slow-motion apocalypse. This is exactly what it will be like (MICHAEL LaPOINTE, author of The Creep)
A story that burns from the page. Dineen writes about motherhood and the climate crisis with piercing clarity (AMY TWIGG, author of Spoilt Creatures)
An incredible novel ... Briefly Very Beautiful left me breathless. It is a stunning, poetic, impelling story of love and survival, which I could not stop reading (JODIE WHITTAKER)
In her debut novel, Roz Dineen unforgettably captures the fear and frenzy of a dystopian future that is coming ever closer. Her prose is gorgeous; her characters fierce and haunting. A book that is, quite literally, on fire. Very beautiful and all-too brief (CATHERINE TAYLOR)
A beautiful and timely novel, combining a tough yet tender-eyed depiction of motherhood with clear-sighted commentary on the climate crisis. This is an important book and I devoured it (CLOVER STROUD)
A poetic and sensual page-turner that perfectly captures motherhood on the brink of apocalypse
