'When an earth-destroying meteor appears in the sky, 15-year-old amateur biologist Elle is terrified that the world is about to end. But when she confronts her parents, they refuse to acknowledge her fears. Instead, they send Elle to see Dr Humboldt, a crackpot specialist who convinces them that Elle is, in fact, a critically endangered Sumatran elephant. Will her parents see reason, or will Elle spend her last days on Earth in a cage? An absurd coming-of-age tale, The Last Elephant on Earth explores growing-up, denial, and the lies we tell ourselves in order to avoid the truth.'
