France, 1714. In a moment of desperation, a young woman makes a Faustian bargain to live forever — and is cursed to be forgotten by everyone she meets.

Thus begins the extraordinary life of Addie LaRue: a dazzling adventure across centuries and continents, across history and art, as a young woman learns how far she will go to leave her mark on the world.

But everything changes when, after nearly 300 years, Addie stumbles across a young man in a hidden bookstore — and he remembers her name.

In the vein of The Time Traveler's Wife and Life After Life, V. E. Schwab's genre-defying tour de force is a love story, a meditation on memory and legacy, and one of the most celebrated novels of the decade.
