Lina and her father seek refuge in a mysterious enclave called the Sea, a staging post where past and future timelines intersect. In this shape-shifting building, they encounter the avatars of historical thinkers like Baruch Spinoza, Hannah Arendt, and Du Fu. The narrative explores the migratory nature of humanity and the quest for home amidst political and personal catastrophe.
