About This Book

An accredited ambassador from another planet arrives on Earth expecting a triumphant reception but is met with pervasive indifference; humans ignore him and treat his ship as rubbish. He studies children's games and speech to learn the language, records sounds and images, retraces his craft after it is moved, and becomes determined to discover why the population behaves as if he does not exist. The narrative follows his patient linguistic and observational investigation as he navigates cultural misunderstandings and seeks an explanation for the baffling reception.
