Listening to Whales for Ten Years

52 Hz is the frequency that the loneliest whale on earth sings. No one of its kind can hear it. When Lin Shen was 24 years old, he was taken to a research station isolated on the sea by his mentor Lao Zhou. Lao Zhou used an old-fashioned transmitter to send whistle signals toward the deep blue for twenty years, but never received a reply. Before he left, he wrote a line in his diary: "Xiao Lin, listen for me." Lin Shen took the harmonica. He thought he was waiting for a whale until Shen Wei appeared. She smashed the transmitter and secretly glued the pieces back together. She pocketed an unscrewed knob and kept it there for ten years. This is a novel about loneliness, waiting and love. It happens at sea, but it talks about the frequency in everyone's heart that no one can hear.
