Description

In the digital age, where connection is paramount yet isolation looms, Colum McCann delivers a propulsive novel exploring rupture and repair. The story follows an Irish writer commissioned to document the critical repair of undersea fiber-optic cables, the very pathways of global communication. As the writer boards a specialized vessel, he uncovers a hidden world both beneath the ocean's surface and within the complex lives of the crew, hinting at sabotage and personal obsessions. This powerful narrative delves into the nature of truth, the fragility of our interconnected world, and the universal search for repair in turbulent times.
