The Ocean Is Everyone's But It Is Not Yours

Beschreibung

The sixth short novella or long short story in Dave Eggers's The Forgetters series. Aurora Mahoney runs one of three whale-watching businesses on the Monterey coast. It's a life of great beauty, wonder and camaraderie, but after one of her fellow captains retires, a new, and decidedly different, sort of captain takes his place. What had been a simple and charmed life is clouded by a sinister, and yet aloof, new force on the waterfront. This is a page-turning examination of what makes a paradise, and how easily one human can destroy it.
