 A characterful, capacious and engaging novel, distilling subjects as diverse as oceanography, climate change, the legacies of colonialism and the arc of a lifelong friendship into an exhilaratingly entangled narrative in which Powers’ unparalleled gifts for revealing the magic and mystery of the natural world are on full display. ― The 2024 Booker Prize Judges
Four lives are drawn together in a sweeping, panoramic new novel from Richard Powers, showcasing the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of The Overstory at the height of his skills. Twelve-year-old Evie Beaulieu sinks to the bottom of a swimming pool in Montreal strapped to one of the world’s first aqualungs. Ina Aroita grows up on naval bases across the Pacific with art as her only home. Two polar opposites at an elite Chicago high school bond over a three-thousand-year-old board game; Rafi Young will get lost in literature, while Todd Keane’s work will lead to a startling AI breakthrough.
They meet on the history-scarred island of Makatea in French Polynesia, whose deposits of phosphorus once helped to feed the world. Now the tiny atoll has been chosen for humanity’s next adventure: a plan to send floating, autonomous cities out onto the open sea. But first, the island’s residents must vote to greenlight the project or turn the seasteaders away.
Set in the world’s largest ocean, this awe-filled book explores that last wild place we have yet to colonize in a still-unfolding oceanic game, and interweaves beautiful writing, rich characterization, profound themes of technology and the environment, and a deep exploration of our shared humanity in a way only Richard Powers can.

Santa Monica Beach, a gem embedded in the California sunshine, caresses the heartstrings of every traveler with its endless charm. It is like a delicate watercolor painting, slowly spreading on the shore of the vast Pacific Ocean. The 3.5-mile golden beach shines warmly and softly in the afterglow of the sunset.
Here, every grain of sand seems to carry a story, and every wave is a whisper of nature. Walking along this romantic coastline, you can feel that time seems to slow down, making people forget the hustle and bustle and indulge in this tranquility and beauty.
Santa Monica Beach is not only a breathtaking landscape painting, but also a paradise full of vitality and fun. From the first ray of sunshine in the morning to the stars in the night, whether it is the passionate challenge of surfers or the dream castles built by children on the beach, they all constitute the unique scenery here.
And the historic Santa Monica Pier, like a kind old man, quietly guards this sea area. When night falls, the bright lights on the Ferris wheel and the starry sky complement each other, as if leading people into a dreamy fairy tale world. Surrounding, the wisdom and tranquility of Chess Park and the grandeur and leisure of Palisades Park add endless cultural heritage and natural charm to this beach.
Santa Monica Beach is a place that makes people yearn for it. It uses beauty and romance to weave the most gentle memories in the hearts of every visitor.
