Maggiori informazioni sul libro
This single-volume hardcover edition compiles the three volumes of the Southern Reach Trilogy, originally published in 2014. The narrative begins with a remote and lush terrain known as Area X, which has been isolated for decades, allowing nature to reclaim human civilization. The first expedition reported a pristine landscape, while subsequent teams faced tragic fates: suicides, violent deaths, and aggressive cancers. The twelfth expedition consists of four women—a biologist, an anthropologist, a surveyor, and a psychologist—tasked with mapping the area and collecting specimens, all while avoiding contamination from Area X. They encounter a massive topographic anomaly and life forms that defy understanding, but the real surprises come from the secrets each member harbors. Following the disastrous twelfth expedition, the Southern Reach agency is in turmoil. In the second volume, John Rodriguez, known as "Control," becomes the new head and uncovers disturbing truths about Area X through interrogations, hidden notes, and troubling footage, forcing him to confront his own identity and the agency's purpose. The final volume sees a new team entering Area X in winter to locate a missing expedition member. As they delve deeper, the threats to the outside world grow, revealing that while some mysteries may be solved, the consequences remain profoundly unsettling.
