More about the book
Exploring the interplay between science and desire, this collection spans two centuries and diverse settings, from the western Himalaya to an Adirondack village. Each story delves into themes of yearning, loss, and unexpected discovery, featuring characters like a mountain mapper confronting obsession and a scientifically curious woman reconciling romantic fantasies. While each tale is standalone, connections to Barrett's previous works, including Ship Fever and The Voyage of the Narwhal, create a rich tapestry of interwoven lives and experiences.
