Paperback. Zustand: Good. 208 pages. cover worn. Ex-libraryThe second novel by the author of the highly praised Giraffe . In a room wit h no windows on the eastern coast of Africa, an Englishman, James More, is held captive by jihadist fighters. Posing as a water engineer to spy on al-Qaeda acti vity in the area, he now faces extreme privation, mock executions and forced mar ches through arid Somali badlands. Thousands of miles away on the Greenland Sea, Danielle Flinders, a biomathematician, prepares for a dive to the ocean floor t o determine the extent and forms of life in the deep. Both are drawn back, in t heir thoughts, to the Christmas of the previous year, and to a French hotel on t he Atlantic coast, where a chance encounter on the beach led to an intense and e nduring romance, now stretching across continents. For James, a descendant of Th omas More, his mind escapes to utopias, and fragments of his life and learning b efore his incarceration, now haunting him. Danny is drawn back to mythical and s cientific origins and to the immense and otherworldly, a comfort and a threat. Submergence is a love story, a meditation on mortality, and a vivid portrayal of man's place on Earth. With it J. M. Ledgard proves himself a writer of large ho rizons and vast ambition.
