About the book
Ursula Todd, daughter of an English banker, is born on a snowy night in 1910 and dies before taking a breath. On the same night, in Kate Atkinson's novel, she is born again and survives. The book keeps looping back in time, and as Ursula grows she dies again and again in different ways, each death starting another version of her life, while the century moves toward its second world war. Her family lives near Chalfont St Peter in Buckinghamshire. The novel opens a pair of books about the Todd family, continued in A God in Ruins, and the BBC adapted it as a television series.
