NATIONAL BOOK AWARD longlist nominee, Helen Phillips’s debut novel, And Yet They Were Happy is A gallery of marvels. –Washington Post
A young couple comes of age in a surreal world of apocalypse, delight, longing, and tenderness.
A young couple sets out to build a life together in an unstable world haunted by monsters, plagued by disasters, full of longing–but also one of transformation, wonder, and delight, peopled by the likes of Noah, Bob Dylan, the Virgin Mary, and Anne Frank. Hovering between reality and fantasy, whimsy and darkness, these linked fables describe a universe both surreal and familiar.
