The book tells the story of an 11-year old girl who dies in 19th century Massachusetts and then manages to travel back in time after she goes through some tough times earlier on. In this alternate life, Thomasin tries to find out what became of her parents when they left for America during their childhoods but never returned.

Life After Life is a 2017 British television drama that tells the story of Thomasin McKenzie, who dies at age 11 and then comes back to life five years later. The show has been renewed for a second season. Read more in detail here: when is life after life on tv.

Life After Life has premiered on Two, telling the tale of Ursula Todd, a young lady who dies and reincarnates several times.

The four-part historical drama takes place between World Wars I and II.

Life After Life is the first of two novels about the Todd family, based on Kate Atkinson’s novel, with A God in Ruins serving as a companion piece rather than a straight sequel and concentrating on Ursula’s brother Teddy.

Ursula’s parents are played by Sian Clifford and James McArdle, respectively, from Fleabag and Mare of Easttown, and Jessica Brown Findlay, Joshua Hill, and Patsy Ferran, respectively, from Downton Abbey.

Ursula is played by Thomasin McKenzie, but who is she and what has she done before?
