Bird box was just named one of the Library of Michigan’s 2015 Michigan Notable Books, and had already been optioned for film adaptation by Universal Studios before it hit shelves. Written with the narrative tension of The Road and the exquisite terror of classic Stephen King, Bird box is a propulsive, edge-of-your-seat thriller, set in an apocalyptic near-future world. This spine-tingling story opens with a woman and her two small children making their way down a river in a rowboat, blindfolded. What or who they are running from, where they are running to, and why they can’t open their eyes, frame and propel this breathtaking debut. Something is out there...something terrifying that must not be seen. One glimpse and a person is driven to deadly violence. No one knows what it is or where it came from, but it unraveled the world as we know it, and five years later, only a handful of scattered survivors remain. With the threat of someone, or something, following them, one wrong move could lead to a grisly death. Josh Malerman is a member of the rock band The High Strung, who have been spotlighted on NPR’s This American Life and profiled on VanityFair.com (about their gig at Guantanamo Bay Library), and penned the theme song for the Showtime series Shameless.
