Patrick Ness
Matthew and Greaves belong together . . .
But somehow, other people’s stories always seem to get in the way.
Meridian is about one phenomenal love affair in search of the right ending. We follow these two men across a cornucopia of possible lives, from a near-future dystopia to the battlefields of World War II, from the American Wild West to the scene of a modern-day high school shooting, from deep space to contemporary Sydney harbour, all while fighting for their love to find its way.
Patrick Ness’ transgressive and tender-hearted novel will sweep you away. It gets to the crux of the question: who gets to tell our stories? And who gets to write the ending?

Critics' reviews
"Meridian is a dazzling, genre-defying novel about love, grief, memory, and the stories we tell ourselves. At its heart is the extraordinary love between Matthew and Greaves, stretching across decades, continents, wars and even the boundary between life and death. Funny, heartbreaking, and wildly inventive, it asks what happens when we refuse to accept the ending we have been given, and discover that another story might still be possible. A breathtaking celebration of love and the limitless power of fiction" (SETH INSUA, author of HUMAN, ANIMAL and MAN AND WIFE)
"A masterful tour-de-force deconstruction of life, love and literature" (ADRIAN TCHAIKOVSKY)
"PRAISE FOR PATRICK NESS: ‘An insanely beautiful writer'"
"This focused, humane book is a joy . . . Also, the sex scenes are so hot they practically set the pages on fire"
"A book of startling and poetic beauty . . . enormously compelling"
"Outstanding . . . Gripping, moving, brilliantly crafted"
"A perfect fusion of surreal imagery and beautifully crafted internal logic . . . the literary equivalent of a Japanese puzzle box with poetry, ideas and jokes twisting and sliding out of it at surprising angles"
"Natural and inspired, and sparkles with latent tension"
