They have just had their first child, and though Carol is struggling with the challenges of new motherhood, her future seems clear. Until something extraordinary happens: an inexplicable flickering of light in the sky, which is ultimately determined to be communication from intelligent life on another planet. But these beings are eleven light-years away, and nothing is known about them other than the fact that they seem to know we exist too. And so begins a decades-long exchange of messages with this mysterious, faraway civilization.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAs humanity reels from a shifting understanding of its place in the universe, we follow the stories of the Girard family: Carol, whose fascination with this other life sparks a desperate search for spiritual meaning; Michael, her loyal son, who finds solace not in the stars above his head but in the ground beneath his feet; and Ro, Carol’s bright and ambitious daughter, whose childhood goal to work in interstellar communication will evolve into something far grander.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTracing five decades of love, loss, ambition, and self-discovery, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Radiant Dark\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is a stunning examination of a family navigating their lives with the knowledge that we are not alone.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eStory Locale:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAdirondacks, NY; Tucson, AZ; Seattle, WA\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"SJP Lit","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":52956933030185,"sku":"9781638932529","price":564.52,"currency_code":"MXN","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0739\/9420\/7529\/files\/9781638932529_7a9d4.jpg?v=1775771017","url":"https:\/\/www.bookup.com.mx\/products\/the-radiant-dark-a-novel","provider":"BOOKUPMX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
