Oh Such a Full Sea: A Novel

Chang-rae Lee

In conversation with Charles Yu

January 15, 2015

Lee, a deeply influential writer about race, class and immigrant life in America, sets his gripping and fiercely imagined new novel in a chilling dystopia, where abandoned post-industrial cities have been converted into forced labor colonies populated with immigrant workers. The fate of the world may lay in the hands of one nervy girl named Fan, a beautiful fish tank diver, who jolts the labor colony by running away. Join Lee and the story-bending author Charles Yu (How to Live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe) for a conversation on alternate realities and the power of a riveting story to change the way we see the world.
