Longlisted for the 2025 National Book Awards for Fiction, North Sun, or the Voyage of the Whaleship Esther, is an allegory of extraction and a tale of adventure and endurance during the waning days of the American whaling industry. Set in 1878, the crew of the Esther is confident the sea will be theirs, cruising the Pacific for whales and hunting the teeming northern grounds before the ice closes. However, as they sail to their final destination in the Chukchi Sea, their encounters with the natural world become more brutal, harrowing, ghostly, and strange. With one foot firmly planted in the traditional sea-voyage narrative and another in a blazing mythos of its own, this debut novel looks unsparingly at the cost of environmental exploitation and predation and feverishly sings not only of the past but to the present and future as well.
