This stunning companion to Kate Atkinson's #1 bestseller Life After Life, "one of the best novels I've read this century" (Gillian Flynn), follows Ursula's brother Teddy as he navigates an unknown future after a perilous war.
"He had been reconciled to death during the war and then suddenly the war was over and there was a next day and a next day. Part of him never adjusted to having a future."

Kate Atkinson's dazzling Life After Life explored the possibility of infinite chances and the power of choices, following Ursula Todd as she lived through the turbulent events of the last century over and over again. A God in Ruins tells the dramatic story of the 20th Century through Ursula's beloved younger brother Teddy -- would-be poet, heroic pilot, husband, father, and grandfather -- as he navigates the perils and progress of a rapidly changing world.

After all that Teddy endures in battle, his greatest challenge is living in a future he never expected to have. An ingenious and moving exploration of one ordinary man's path through extraordinary times, A God in Ruins proves once again that Kate Atkinson is one of the finest novelists of our age.

Not very comfortable
Color: Black, Size: 42D
Just okay. Provides support but doesn’t particularly minimize and isn’t very comfortable.

Gorgeous!
Color: 01.Heart Cut, Style: 04. April (Diamond)
I love this necklace! I wanted something that represented my birthstone, but did not cost a fortune and could be easily replaced if it’s ever lost. I have very sensitive skin. Seriously, I’m even allergic to gold unless it’s pure. This necklace is perfect. The chain hasn’t bothered the skin on my neck since I put it on. The size is perfect for me. It sits exactly where I want it to. The pendant is a true Goldilocks - not too big, not too small, but just right! I love the way it looks in the sun! Sparkles, sparkles, sparkles! This is definitely going to be my go to, everyday piece. I highly recommend this to anyone who is even a little bit interested in buying it. You won’t be disappointed. It makes a wonderful gift for ladies and girls of all ages, or simply as a treat to yourself! Choose your birthstone or your favorite color! In fact, I’m considering which color to purchase next. Can’t say enough how much I am in love with this amazing piece!

Sparkling ✨️ Pretty
Color: 02.Round Cut, Style: 04. April (Diamond)
The chain is very nice, can adjust it to 16 to 18inches. Appears to be 925 sterling sliver. The diamond charm is about a diime in size. It's sparkling and pretty. I can't decide if the charm is to big or not for me. All in all 40. Spent on it was ok but no more.
