Introduction

Thirty years ago, the Rose of Nevada was lost at sea with all hands. When it suddenly reappears in its rundown Cornish harbour, two men enlist on a new fishing expedition, but somehow return to the ship’s former era. George MacKay and Callum Turner impress in Jenkin’s bold, prismatic exploration of identity, grief and vagaries of time.
