Kate is in the middle of a two-week mandatory quarantine period, a true lockdown, but she can't take it anymore--the closeness of the air in her small house, the confinement. And anyway, the moor will be deserted at this time. Nobody need ever know she's stepped out. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eKate planned only a quick walk--a stretch of the legs, a breath of fresh air--on paths she knows too well. But somehow she falls. Injured, unable to move, she sees that her short, furtive stroll will become a mountain rescue operation, maybe even a missing person case. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSarah Moss's \u003ci\u003eThe Fell\u003c\/i\u003e is a story of mutual responsibility, personal freedom, and compassion. Suspenseful, witty, and wise, it asks probing questions about how close so many live to the edge and about who we are in the world, who we are to our neighbors, and who we become when the world demands we shut ourselves away.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSarah Moss\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eSummerwater\u003c\/i\u003e, a best book of the year in \u003ci\u003eThe Guardian \u003c\/i\u003eand\u003ci\u003e The Times \u003c\/i\u003e(London), and\u003ci\u003e Ghost Wall\u003c\/i\u003e, a \u003ci\u003eNew York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e Editors' Choice and a best book of the year in \u003ci\u003eElle\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eFinancial Times\u003c\/i\u003e, and other publications.
