Set on South Veyra, a remote island in the Bay of Bengal, in 2075, "Gleam from the Abyss" takes you with the protagonist Aarya Sen, a researcher, to investigate sources of a strange fungal ecosystem, absorbed in memory and sentience. As Aarya discovers the mysteries and truths of the island in the form of glowing spores, strange glyphs, and the shadowy Gleamers, she unfolds her own past and contemplates the forces of corporate egotism that threaten the Grove. A haunting blend of speculative fiction, ecological mystery, and human resilience, this debut novel is an exploration of what it means to be in communion with a world that remembers.
