Description

In the aftermath of a profound loss, salvage diver Bobby Western grapples with the ghosts of his past and the mysteries of his sister Alicia's fractured mind. As Bobby navigates the murky depths of his grief and the secrets of his family's connection to the atomic age, Alicia's own internal world unfolds through hallucinatory dialogues with a phantom companion. This deeply philosophical novel plunges into the nature of reality, the passage of time, and the enduring human struggle against suffering, exploring the complex interplay between genius, mental illness, and the search for meaning.
