Following her landmark bestseller A Little Life, this brand new paperback weaves three interlinked stories set in 1893, 1993 and 2093, each exploring love, freedom and the elusive dream of utopia. A Sunday Times number one bestseller, it is an essential pick for readers of ambitious literary fiction, book clubs and anyone drawn to bold, emotionally rich storytelling reimagining the American experiment across time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Book:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nTo Paradise unfolds across three distinct eras. In an alternate 1893 America, New York belongs to the Free States, where love and marriage appear unconstrained by convention, yet a young heir's resistance to an arranged match reveals the quiet cost of freedom within a gilded world. The novel shifts to 1993 Manhattan, where a young Hawaiian man, sharing his life with an older, wealthier partner, must confront a hidden family history and the shadow of the AIDS epidemic. Finally, in 2093, a dystopian near-future ravaged by plagues and ruled by an authoritarian state, the granddaughter of a powerful scientist searches for answers about her missing husband while reckoning with inherited guilt. Threaded together by recurring names and themes, the three sections build an intricate symphony examining race, class, illness, power and the enduring human need to protect those we love. Yanagihara's prose is intimate and unflinching, moving between historical pastiche, contemporary realism and speculative dystopia. Selected among Oprah Daily's Best Books, it offers readers who loved A Little Life the same depth of feeling on an even larger canvas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWritten by Hanya Yanagihara, author of the internationally bestselling A Little Life.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA No. 1 Sunday Times bestseller praised for its ambitious, layered structure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpans three centuries and three versions of America, blending historical and speculative fiction.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for book clubs, literary fiction lovers and fans of character-driven, thought-provoking novels.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand new paperback edition in the UK Picador imprint, ready to gift or collect.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nHanya Yanagihara is an American novelist, best known for her internationally bestselling, Booker-shortlisted novel A Little Life.
