An island. Four seekers. United by what may be humanity's last great adventure. – The moving masterpiece by Pulitzer Prize winner and author of the international bestseller 'The Overstory' On Makatea, once a forgotten speck in the endless blue Pacific, the society of the future is to be created. Through twists and turns and changing tides, four people find each other on the island, their fates inextricably linked to that of the planet: Evelyne Beaulieu, who dives into the depths of the ocean to decipher the mysterious game of the giant manta rays; Ina Aroita, who scours the paradisiacal beaches for materials for her sculptures, only to find that the sea has long since washed ashore nothing but plastic waste; and the dreamy bibliophile Rafi Young and the visionary computer nerd Todd Keane, whose friendship is threatened by their audacious attempt to invent a game that will change our Earth forever. The great storyteller Richard Powers masterfully composes the pressing questions of our time—about the impact of the climate crisis and the hopes of artificial intelligence—into a captivating and profoundly moving epic.
