More about the book
Set against the backdrop of the atoll of Hikueru, the narrative unfolds with a captain expertly navigating the Aorai through gentle breezes, showcasing the challenges of reaching the lagoon. The atoll, a low ring of coral sand, is surrounded by a vast lagoon rich with pearl shell, where divers labor diligently. However, the lagoon's accessibility is limited, as trading schooners cannot enter directly, relying instead on small boats to transport goods. This setting highlights the interplay between nature and human endeavor in a remote maritime environment.
