It's a hilariously revisionist account of Noah's Ark, narrated by a passenger who doesn't appear in the Genesis. It's a sneak preview of heaven, encompassing stories of a cruise ship hijacked by terrorists and woodworks tried for blasphemy in sixteenth-century France. It explores the relationship of fact to tabulation and the antagonism between history and love.
