The Inheritors: Introduced by Ben Okri

Hunt, trek, and feast among Neanderthals in this stunning novel by the radical Nobel Laureate and author of `Lord of the Flies`, introduced by Ben Okri.This was a different voice; not the voice of the people. It was the voice of other.When spring comes, the people leave their winter cave, foraging for honey, grubs, and the hot richness of a deer`s brain. They awaken the fire to heat their naked bodies, lay down their thorn bushes, and share pictures in their minds. But strange things are happening: inexplicable scents and sounds. Imaginable beasts are half-glimpsed in the forest; upright creatures of bone-faces and deerskins. What the people do not know is that their day is already over …”Extraordinary … Genius … Remarkable in the literature of the twentieth century.” Ben Okri”A stun gun to read … Truly a masterpiece.” Monique Roffey”An astonishing, underrated novel.” Robert MacFarlane
