From the author of Station Eleven comes a breathtaking meditation on time, memory, and connection that spans centuries and worlds.
In 1912, exiled eighteen-year-old Edwin St. Andrew wanders into a Canadian forest and hears something impossible: the faint strains of a violin inside an airship terminal. Two hundred years later, a celebrated author named Olive Llewellyn tours Earth with her own haunting book about a pandemic. And in the far future, detective Gaspery-Jacques Roberts investigates an anomaly that links their lives across time.
What he discovers bends the limits of reality and reveals the fragile beauty of human existence.
Emily St. John Mandel’s Sea of Tranquility is a tender, time-spanning masterpiece about how love and art echo through the ages.
