In the midst of an unfolding disaster, seven people are trying to survive on a small boat in a world completely transformed by an apocalyptic flood. Haunted by entwined pasts, the characters must voyage from a small town through a world that seems increasingly fantastic. Each will face their past, some will die, and the boat will take some to a miraculous new world but only fifteen-year-old Charlotte will discover that death is not always death.
In this episode Gregory Dobbs chats to Allen C Jones about how his experimental approach to poetry and prose somehow became a page-turning thriller novel, what the microcosm of seven people in a tiny boat floating in a vast featureless body of water can tell us about humanity, and how a universal disaster could have unexpected outcomes.
