Wyobraź sobie, że jesteś żeglarzem-rozbitkiem dryfującym po ogromnym Pacyfiku. Możesz wybrać jeden z trzech kierunków i uratować siebie i towarzyszy, ale każdy wybór wiąże się również z jakimś budzącym strach następstwem. Jak podjąć decyzję? Opowiadając historię statku wielorybniczego Essex, powieściopisarka Karen Thompson Walker pokazuje, jak strach napędza wyobraźnię, zmuszając nas do wyobrażania sobie możliwości, jakie niesie ze sobą przyszłość i do zastanowienia się, jak sobie z nimi poradzić.

Fiction writer Karen Thompson Walker explores the connection between fear and the imagination. Full bio »
