Eight ordinary people from a neighborhood in Galați, Romania, a warehouse worker, a mother, a skeptic, a painter, are chosen to become emissaries of a living universe on the brink of collapse. Not because they're special, but because their very fragilities are what make them fit for it.
From a balcony in Micro 39 to a base on Ganymede, "39" is a science-fiction novel about connection, responsibility, and what it means to be a conscious cell inside an immense body. A universe like nothing in the movies: organic, alive, breathing and beginning to fall ill.
Everything lives.
