More about the book

In a surreal city plagued by an undefined crisis, a "linguist-traveler" navigates the complexities of Ravicka, where the atmosphere feels alien despite her fluency in the language. As she grapples with her feelings of disconnection and the city's mysterious erosion, she faces an ontological crisis that challenges her understanding of reality. This novel, the first in a trilogy by Renee Gladman, explores themes of identity, belonging, and the challenges of urban life in a vividly imagined setting.
