On Such a Full Sea / Chang-Rae Lee. - New York : Riverhead Books, 2014. - 406, [1] stron ; 20 cm.
On Such A Full Sea is a 2014 novel by Chang-Rae Lee that explores themes of alienation, wealth, greed, ecology, freedom, and survival. The book is set in the future. America has fallen from grace. Society is strictly stratified into three classes. There are the Charter villages, which house the richest and most elite families. Then, there are the long-abandoned urban neighborhoods, which have been repurposed as high walled, self-contained labor colonies.
On Such a Full Sea is Lee's fifth novel in twenty years, and his first to depart from the experience of isolation and alienation among immigrants. Here, the immigrants are portrayed as the rightful residents, and saviors, of B-Mor, a strange settlement representing all that remains of what used to be Baltimore.
