"The Girl with All the Gifts" is a science fiction novel by M.R. Carey set in a post-apocalyptic world overrun by a fungal infection that turns humans into zombie-like creatures called Hungries. The story follows a young girl named Melanie, who is one of a group of children kept in a military facility. These children are unique because they possess both human intelligence and the infection, making them a key to understanding the disease. As the narrative unfolds, Melanie and her teacher, Miss Justineau, along with a few others, escape the facility after it is attacked. They embark on a journey through a dangerous landscape, exploring themes of survival, identity, and what it means to be human in a world where the lines between humanity and monstrosity are blurred.
