Synopsis:
Player One: What Is to Become of Us is a novel written for the 2010 CBC Massey Lectures. Set over five hours in the lounge of a Toronto airport hotel, the story follows four strangers—Karen, Rick, Luke, and Rachel—whose conversations and confessions unfold as the world outside begins to slide into sudden, cataclysmic chaos. As news and rumors of a spreading disaster intensify, the characters confront fear, loneliness, faith, desire, and what it means to remain human when society’s systems begin to fail. Told in five linked chapters (reflecting the original lecture structure), the book blends dark humor and philosophical reflection with an escalating sense of dread and uncertainty about the future.
