| Summary, etc. |
From Maylis de Kerangal comes this story of a dozen men and women {u2013} engineers, designers, machinery operators, cable riggers {u2013} all employees of an international consortium charged with building a bridge somewhere in a mythical and fantastic California. Their collective effort to complete the megaproject recounts one of the oldest of human dramas, to domesticate {u2013} and to radically transform {u2013} our world through built form, with all the dramatic tension it brings: a threatened strike, an environmental dispute, sabotage, accidents, career moves, and love affairs {u2026} Here generations and social classes cease to exist, and everyone and everything converges toward the bridge as metaphor, a cross-cultural impression of America today. |
