Read
The New York Times bestselling author Emily St. John Mandel returns with Sea of Tranquility. The science fiction novel about art, time, love and plague takes the reader from Vancouver Island in 1912 to a dark colony on the moon 300 years later, unfurling a story of humanity across centuries and space. The New York Times calls it “One of [Mandel’s] finest novels and one of her most satisfying forays into the arena of speculative fiction yet.”
