Boston based author Laura van den Berg's debut novel Find Me was released June 4 in the UK after it received rave reviews in the US after its February debut.

Called the 'best young writer in America' by Salon, van den Berg is known for her collections of short stories, What the World Will Look Like When All the Water Leaves Us and The Isle Of Youth, and her work teaching creative writing in various prestigious universities across the US. Find Me, which has earned comparisons with The Handmaid's Tale and Never Let Me Go, is a piece of dystopian fiction about an epidemic of memory loss that sweeps America. Its central character Joy is immune to the disease, and the story moves from her life in hospital to her road trip across the country as she goes in search of her mother. The novel, which has been praised by publications ranging from The Guardian to The Daily Mail and the New York Times, is sure to put van den Berg on the map as one of 2015's most exciting young writers.
