«The Red Children» is the contemporary fiction novel by Maggie Gee, published by Saqi Books in hardcover (304 pages, in English).
In the 2030s, in the coastal town of Ramsgate, four strange-looking people appear, fleeing the heat. Soon more arrive, and their presence divides the residents: some welcome them and others accuse them of bringing infections. Two siblings take opposing sides, while a teacher anticipates the conflicts. The novel combines the fable about migration and climate change with a summer festival, love and hope.
Maggie Mary Gee is an English novelist. In 2012, she became a professor of creative writing at Bath Spa University.
