Here, and Only Here: A Novel

Welcome to the School of Here, an unsettling and peculiar place, yet a familiar one. At Here, society is highly stratified and the whole place is organized by ironclad rules and overseen by a rigid ruling class. This year things seem especially off-kilter. A self-effacing student has vanished into thin air. A persecuted outsider goes into permanent exile. A newly-minted prophetess tests her powers. And, behind the scenes, a secret cabal conducts research into an unexplained phenomenon that connects everything.

With Here, and Only Here, Christelle Dabos—author of the international sensation The Mirror Visitor Quartet—gives readers an intriguing and penetrating novel that explores the difficulties of fitting in and the private, individual choices that make up the sometimes abhorrent, always unpredictable Collective.
