Watching a talented writer take a risk is one of the pleasures of devoted reading, and On

Chang-rae Lee] has found a new way to explore his old preoccupation: the oft-told tale of the desperate, betraying, lonely human heart.--Andrew Sean Greer, The New York Times Book Review I\'ve never been a fan of grand hyperbolic declarations in book reviews, but faced with On
Such a
Full Sea , I have no choice but to ask: Who is a greater novelist than
Chang-rae Lee today?--Porochista Khakpour, The Los Angeles Times From the beloved award-winning author of Native Speaker and The Surrendered , a highly provocative, deeply affecting story of one woman\'s legendary quest in a shocking, future America. On Such a Full Sea takes
Chang-rae Lee\'s elegance of prose, his masterly storytelling, and his long-standing interests in identity, culture, work, and love, and lifts them to a new plane. Stepping from the realistic and historical territories of his previous work, Lee brings us into a world created from scratch. Against a vividly imagined future America, Lee tells a stunning, surprising, and riveting story that will change the way readers think about the world they live in. In a future, long-declining America, society is strictly stratified by class. Long-abandoned urban neighborhoods have been repurposed as highwalled, self-contained labor colonies. And the members of the labor class--descendants of those brought over en masse many years earlier from environmentally ruined provincial China--find purpose and identity in their work to provide pristine produce and fish to the small, elite, satellite charter villages that ring the labor settlement. In this world lives Fan, a female fish-tank diver, who leaves her home in the B-Mor settlement (once known as Baltimore), when the man she loves mysteriously disappears. Fan\'s journey to find him takes her out of the safety of B-Mor, through the anarchic Open Counties, where crime is rampant with scant governmental oversight, and to a faraway charter village, in a quest that will soon become legend to those she left behind.
