Synopsis
“May be the most exciting mash-up of literary genres since David Mitchell’s Cloud Atlas.�( The New York Times Book Review ) Shining at the Bottom of the Sea is a vibrant evocation of a fictional country, Sanjania—from the birth pangs of its first settlers and their hardy vernacular, to its revolutionary years, and all the way to the present diaspora—all told through Stephen Marche’s innovative and accomplished writing style.
