Iedomājieties, ka jūsu kuģis ir avarējis un jūs dreifējat milzīgajos Klusā okeāna plašumos. Jūs varat izvēlēties vienu no trim veidiem, kā izglābt sevi un savus biedrus, tomēr katrs lēmums līdzi nes biedējošas sekas. Kā jūs izdarīsiet izvēli? Stāstot par vaļu medību kuģu „Eseksa”, rakstniece Kārena Tomsone Volkere demonstrē, kā bailes iedarbojas uz mūsu iztēli, kas liek mums iztēloties iespējamās nākotnes situācijas un to, kā ar tām tikt galā.
