Deze auteur onderzoekt hoe fictie ervaringen effectiever kan overbrengen dan louter feiten. Zijn roman, geïnspireerd door een wereldwijde zeilreis van vier jaar, duikt in de diepten van de vertelkunst om de essentie van reizen vast te leggen. In de erkenning dat dagboeken alleen vaak geen verhaal vertellen, benut de auteur de kracht van het vertellen om herinneringen tot leven te wekken en een gevoel van ervaring aan anderen over te brengen. Zijn werk toont aan dat ware verhalen vaak meer vereisen dan alleen het vertellen van gebeurtenissen, en dat een goed geconstrueerd verhaal geloofwaardiger en meeslepender kan zijn dan de naakte waarheid.
