Synopsis

The universe is old beyond imagining and yet it remains silent. Where is everyone? This book with its extraordinary tale explores these questions. It ventures deep through the architecture of what is real, the nature of time, and the physics of the boundary where the known runs out. It is told by an awareness that has been present for fourteen billion years, attending to everything that has arisen and passed. Until a single life, close up, shows it what fourteen billion years of watching from above could not. At one boundary, a filter is revealed. At another, something the awareness had no category for. At a third, the awareness finds that the absence of category was not only out there, but in here. It is in the watching itself. And by finding the unexpected, it changes what the questioning was, and why there is no voice reaching back across the dark. The filter has not closed. But it is closing. And everything that has ever lived on this world will be shaped by what we do next.
