| Description | In her novel Orbital, winner of the Booker Prize in 2024, Samantha Harvey tells the story of one day on the International Space Station. Throughout the narrative, we look at Earth through the eyes of astronauts. Among the characters are two Russian cosmonauts, Roman and Anton, the Italian Pietro, the Japanese Chie, the British Nell and the American Shaun. We know relatively little about them, but we spend twenty-four hours with them on the ISS and see Earth from space through their eyes. They observe an astonishing sight unavailable to us; they recognise familiar places; they imagine what their loved ones are doing; they are sad that they cannot be near them; they grieve for losses that can no longer be repaired. Reading this miniature book, filled with philosophical meaning and deep feeling, we cannot help but sense the value of the whole world and the uniqueness of every life. |
