Her charming farmhouse on her working ranch is artfully cluttered, her husband is a handsome cowboy, her homemade sourdough boules are each more beautiful than the last. So what if there are nannies and producers and industrial-grade ovens behind the scenes? What her followers don’t know won’t hurt them.<br /><br />Then, one morning, Natalie wakes up in a strange, horrible version of reality. Her home, her husband, her children—they’re all familiar, but something’s off. Is this a hoax? A reality show? A test from God? Natalie knows just two things for sure: this isn't her perfect life, and she must escape, by any means possible.<br /><br />As darkly funny as it is shocking and gripping, Yesteryear is an electrifying examination of tradition, fame, faith and the grand performance of womanhood, from a thrilling new talent in fiction.<br /><br />NOW BEING ADAPTED INTO A MAJOR FILM STARRING ANNE HATHAWAY<br /><br />‘WICKEDLY FUNNY, FRIGHTENINGLY PERCEPTIVE' ABIGAIL DEAN<br /><br />'INVENTIVE, ADDICTIVE, A WILD RIDE' ASHLEY AUDRAIN<br /><br />'SHOT THROUGH WITH HUMOUR, LACED WITH DARKNESS' CLARE MACKINTOSH<br /><br />'THE STEPFORD WIVES MEETS THE HANDMAID'S TALE' HANNAH DEITCH<br /><br />About the author<br /><br />Caro Claire Burke received her Master’s in Fine Arts from the Bennington Writing Seminars.
