Life there, on the eve of Trevor's birth, is grim: the population, once in the hundreds, now hovers around thirty; his parents stubbornly maintain the family business, a guesthouse, despite their increasing trouble turning a profit; and a plague of rats threatens to wipe out the island's last remaining hopes. Against this backdrop, and through a series of interlocking narratives spanning from Trevor's birth to the present day, What Ends follows each of the McClouds as they navigate their ever-more fragile lives.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"New Issues Poetry \u0026 Prose","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47040345473264,"sku":"9781936970223","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781936970223_p0.jpg?v=1763659498","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781936970223","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
