About This Novel
After reading "Moby-Dick", a young man longed for life at sea. He came from Santiago to a strange port in southern Chile, boarded a whaling ship and became a sailor, and saw the seas sailed by heroes in reality and novels. Years later, he became a journalist and joined Greenpeace, living on the other side of the world. When he returned to the places he had traveled, it was for completely different reasons. Several pirate ships hunt marine animals in the frozen sea at the end of the world. He must follow the blood trail at sea, find evidence, and stop this barbaric act. This book collects four of Sepulveda's novellas, showing the characteristics of the Chilean writer as a traveler and environmentalist. By writing about his experiences of traveling to the end of the known world, he calls for a balance between ecology and human dreams. The lines are full of poetry, passion and tenderness.
