Description

Alesandro Sussken's life is marked by the constant presence of war and its devastating effects. His family is destroyed by grief, but his music becomes a source of solace. When he is unexpectedly sent on a cultural tour, Alesandro discovers islands that exist beyond the reach of the junta's forbidden knowledge. These enigmatic islands have a profound impact on Alesandro's perceptions of his country, his music, and the nature of time itself. As he navigates this new world, Priest explores the complexities of living under war and the creative mind's ability to find meaning in the most challenging circumstances. The result is a thought-provoking novel that showcases Christopher Priest's mastery of science fiction and his unique perspective on the human experience.
