"Beautiful, subtle. . . . Brimming with humanity and bending, despite everything, toward hope." --The New York Times Book Review
"Shimmers with wit, melancholy, grief, joy, wisdom, small acts of love and, always, wonder at the seasons." --The Boston Globe "Ali Smith has a beautiful mind. [Autumn is] unbearably moving in its playful, strange, soulful assessment of what it means to be alive at a somber time." --The New York Times "Bliss from beginning to end. . . . However stormy the events and themes of Smith's work, their presiding spirit is sunny, witty, and expansive." --Laura Miller, Slate "A wonder of deep and accommodating compassion." --The Washington Post "Gorgeously constructed. . . . Smith has a kind of irrepressible sense of joy." --The Atlantic "Knits together an astonishing array of seemingly disparate subjects. . . . Free spirits and the lifeforce of art--along with kindness, hope, and a readiness 'to be above and beyond the foul even when we're up to our eyes in it'--are, when you get down to it, what Smith champions in this stirring novel." --NPR "[A] masterwork on the post-Brexit world. . . . Impressionistic and deeply personal." --New YorkMAN BOOKER PRIZE FINALIST

Autumn. Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness. Two old friends—Daniel, a centenarian, and Elisabeth, born in 1984—look to both the future and the past as the United Kingdom stands divided by a historic, once-in-a-generation summer. Love is won, love is lost. Hope is hand-in-hand with hopelessness. The seasons roll round, as ever.
A luminous meditation on the meaning of richness and harvest and worth, Autumn is the first installment of Ali Smith’s Seasonal quartet, and it casts an eye over our own time: Who are we? What are we made of? Shakespearean jeu d’esprit, Keatsian melancholy, the sheer bright energy of 1960s pop art. Wide-ranging in time-scale and light-footed through histories, Autumn is an unforgettable story about aging and time and love—and stories themselves.
