Beskrivelse
Playground is a gripping new novel from Richard Powers, the Pulitzer Prize-winning and Booker-shortlisted author known for The Overstory and Bewilderment. This acclaimed story brings together diverse characters connected by a unique island in the Pacific.
An intricate tale weaving technology, environment, and human connection across the vast Pacific Ocean.
Rafi and Todd, two very different students at a prestigious high school, take separate paths as adults-Rafi immerses himself in literature while Todd dives into the realm of artificial intelligence. Meanwhile, Evie experiences the depths of a swimming pool, equipped with one of the earliest aqualungs, and Ina grows up moving between naval bases scattered across the Pacific, finding solace only in art.
These distinct lives converge on Makatea, a history-rich island in French Polynesia, which becomes the backdrop for humanity’s next big journey. Set against the world’s largest ocean, Playground masterfully explores profound themes of technology, environmental challenges, and the essence of what it means to be human.
