Oryx and Crake (MaddAddam, #1) opens Goodreads in a new tab

With the same blend of prophecy and social satire she brought to The Handmaid's Tale, Margaret Atwood gives us a keenly prescient novel about the future of humanity and its present. Snowman, once known as Jimmy, may be the last human after a plague, mourning the loss of his best friend Crake and the elusive Oryx whom they both loved. With the help of the green-eyed Children of Crake, he journeys through the wilderness that was recently a great city. First in the MaddAddam trilogy, a Booker Prize finalist.
