Overview

La montaña en el mar de Ray Nayler es un debut literario deslumbrante y una reflexión excepcional sobre la naturaleza de la consciencia y sobre los claroscuros de sus consecuencias.

¿Y si una nueva especie de pulpos hiperinteligentes tuviera la clave para el futuro de la humanidad?

Empiezan a difundirse rumores sobre una especie de pulpos peligrosa y extraordinariamente inteligente que podría haber desarrollado un lenguaje y una cultura propios. Ha Nguyen, una bióloga marina que ha dedicado la vida a investigar el cerebro de los cefalópodos, hará lo posible para estudiarlos.

DIANIMA, una empresa tecnológica internacional, se ha aislado en el remoto archipiélago de Con Dao, en Vietnam, donde los pulpos han sido avistados. La doctora Nguyen viaja a las islas para unirse al equipo de investigación formado por una agente de seguridad llena de cicatrices de guerra y el primer androide de la historia.

Los pulpos son la clave para realizar descubrimientos sin precedentes sobre la inteligencia animal. Pero hay mucho en juego: quien consiga aprovecharse de dichos hallazgos logrará una gran fortuna. Así pues, mientras la doctora Nguyen intenta comunicarse con la especie recién descubierta, entra en escena una facción más importante que DIANIMA para apoderarse de los pulpos. Sin embargo, nadie les ha preguntado a estas criaturas marinas qué opinan. Ni qué piensan hacer al respecto.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

WINNER OF 2023 LOCUS AWARD FOR BEST FIRST NOVEL

FINALIST FOR THE NEBULA AWARD, and THE LOS ANGELES TIMES RAY BRADBURY PRIZE

The Mountain in the Sea is a wildly original, gorgeously written, unputdownable gem of a novel. Ray Nayler is one of the most exciting new voices I’ve read in years.” Blake Crouch, author of Upgrade and Dark Matter

Humankind discovers intelligent life in an octopus species with its own language and culture, and sets off a high-stakes global competition to dominate the future.


The transnational tech corporation DIANIMA has sealed off the remote Con Dao Archipelago, where a species of octopus has been discovered that may have developed its own language and culture. The marine biologist Dr. Ha Nguyen, who has spent her life researching cephalopod intelligence, will do anything for the chance to study them. She travels to the islands to join DIANIMA’s team: a battle-scarred security agent and the world’s first (and possibly last) android.

The octopuses hold the key to unprecedented breakthroughs in extra-human intelligence. As Dr. Nguyen struggles to communicate with the newly discovered species, forces larger than DIANIMA close in to seize the octopuses for themselves.

But no one has yet asked the octopuses what they think. Or what they might do about it.

A near-future thriller, a meditation on the nature of consciousness, and an eco-logical call to arms, Ray Nayler’s dazzling literary debut The Mountain in the Sea is a mind-blowing dive into the treasure and wreckage of humankind’s legacy.
