Krátky popis
'Monumental' Telegraph'Magnificent' Guardian'Transcendent' New
ScientistLeigh grew up in Rotterdam, drawn to the waterfront as an
escape from her unhappy home life and volatile father. Enchanted by
the undersea world of her childhood, she excels in marine biology,
travelling the globe to study ancient organisms. When a trench is
discovered in the Atlantic ocean, Leigh joins the exploration team,
hoping to find evidence of the earth's first life forms - what she
instead finds calls into question everything we know about our own
beginnings.Her discovery leads Leigh to the Mojave desert and an
ambitious new space agency. Drawn deeper into the agency's work,
she learns that the Atlantic trench is only one of several related
phenomena from across the world, each piece linking up to suggest a
pattern beyond human understanding. Leigh knows that to continue
working with the agency will mean leaving behind her declining
mother and her younger sister, and faces an impossible choice: to
remain with her family, or to embark on a journey across the
breadth of the cosmos.Exploring the natural world with the wonder
and reverence we usually reserve for the stars, In Ascension is a
compassionate, deeply inquisitive epic that reaches outward to
confront the greatest questions of existence, looks inward to
illuminate the smallest details of the human heart, and shows how -
no matter how far away we might be and how much we have lost hope -
we will always attempt to return to the people and places we call
home.
