Fourteen Days Summary

Fourteen Days by Margaret Atwood

Compelling' Marie Claire * 'Immensely enjoyable' Observer * 'Fascinating' Red *

One week into lockdown, the tenants of a Manhattan apartment building have begun to gather on the rooftop each evening and tell stories in this exciting new twist on the novel.

With each passing night, more and more neighbours gather, bringing chairs and milk crates and overturned buckets. Gradually the tenants some of whom have barely spoken to each other before now become real neighbours.

With each character secretly written by a different, major literary voice - from Margaret Atwood to John Grisham and Celeste Ng, Fourteen Days is a heart-warming ode to the power of storytelling and human connection.

An immensely enjoyable product of an immensely unenjoyable time, Fourteen Days is lively, freewheeling An impressive achievement Observer

An immensely enjoyable product of an immensely unenjoyable time, Fourteen Days is lively, freewheeling andan impressive achievement * Observer *
Fourteen Days serves as a valuable reminder that stories can teach, console, provide a place of acceptance and perhaps even change their readers (or listeners) * Financial Times *
We like a bit of fun with our fiction, of the sort you get with Fourteen Days, a new collaborative novel set in a New York tenement in the early days of the pandemic in which a crew of acclaimed writers including Margaret Atwood, John Grisham and Emma Donoghue each tell a different characters story. * The Times *
A rather intriguing puzzle box of a book enjoyable, and has a dip-into-able quality * Scotland on Sunday *
If you want to feel well read in double-quick time, try Fourteen Days, which is set in a New York city tenement in the early days of the pandemic. It has a novel twist (pardon the pun) - each character has been secretly written by a different author from Margaret Atwood and John Grisham to Dave Eggers and Celeste Ng * BBC *
