Long listed for the 2024 Booker Prize, it struck me as an interesting concept and-- being the shortest of the entries-- I thought I could squeeze this
Long listed for the 2024 Booker Prize, it struck me as an interesting concept and-- being the shortest of the entries-- I thought I could squeeze this one in before the prize was awarded. This is told from the viewpoint of six astronauts (two identifying as cosmonauts) orbiting the Earth in a space station. I was fascinated from the start. We are immediately transported into the character's mindsets, how they have to adjust to everything. The concept of time is turned upside down; we are programmed to measure it by sunrises and sunsets, so they have to be very deliberate with the 24-hour clock. "Space sheds time to pieces." The cast here also struggle with distortions of reality brought on by the immense distances, by the separation from family, and even the physical toll that the lack of gravity extracts from the body. Late in the book there is an intriguing passage linking a spacewalk to memories from the womb. Author Samantha Harvey does an amazing job getting into the heads of these people. This is more philosophical than plot-driven, however, and started to get a little long (even at 208 pages). It is the third entry I have read of the long list, and I do not really see it moving on to the short list. ***AND, showing my power of predictions, I was mistaken, and "Orbital" was just announced as a short list nominee for the Booker Prize*** Thank you to my library for securing this copy for me!

Finished reading this with six-year-old Nolan. We originally checked this out from the library... but we now own it. As he went running by one day, his super-hero cape sent a glass of beer flying. The book absorbed the damage and, inasmuch as the library would most likely frown on a craft beer aroma additive, it is now ours. He loved the mischievous tone of the book, and it got him away from YouTube and Fortnite for whole blocks of time... so, win-win.
