Signed ephemera laid in. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSet against the harrowing backdrop of 17th-century England, this gripping work of historical fiction chronicles the true story of the village of Eyam, which voluntarily quarantined itself in 1666 to prevent the spread of bubonic plague. Narrated by Anna Frith, a young widow and housemaid, the novel unfolds with quiet intensity as she witnesses her community fracture under the weight of unimaginable loss, fear, and moral collapse. Geraldine Brooks masterfully illustrates how catastrophe strips away the veneer of civilization, exposing both the darkest impulses and the most transcendent acts of human courage. Written with lyrical precision and deep historical authenticity, the narrative transforms a remarkable act of collective sacrifice into an intimate portrait of one woman's resilience and spiritual reckoning. Year of Wonders stands as a powerful meditation on faith, community, and the will to survive in the face of annihilation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48763134116059,"sku":"2026600000451-SECONDHAND","price":40.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/9e76fc38-b48d-46cc-a3a9-457d1f3a9c0f.png?v=1778499072","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026600000451-secondhand-year-of-wonders-a-novel-of-the-plague-signed","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
