Description

In the heart of London, two solitary souls, William G and Neaera H, find an unlikely common ground in the plight of captive green turtles. Their shared obsession with the creatures' confinement ignites a daring plan: to rescue them and return them to the vastness of the sea. This poignant narrative explores themes of loneliness, connection, and the quiet determination to right a perceived wrong, all set against the backdrop of urban isolation. Russell Hoban masterfully crafts a story that is both a gentle adventure and a profound meditation on finding purpose and freedom.
