About the Book
Shortlisted for the International Booker Prize "This book challenged me profoundly. It moved me, and stayed with me. Itâs not an easy read â but as our politics descend into hate-mongering and point-scoring, itâs an essential story that needs to be told.ââ Dua Lipa A singular, gut-punching parable for our times about complicity in the face of tragedy, based on the true story of a French navy officer who ignored distress calls from migrants drowning in the English Channel. In November 2021, an inflatable dinghy carrying migrants from France to the UK capsized in the English Channel, causing the deaths of 27 people on board. Despite receiving numerous calls for help, the French authorities wrongly told the migrants they were in British waters and had to call the British authorities for help. By the time rescue vessels arrived on the scene, nearly three hours later, all but two of the migrants had died, the worst single loss of life ever to occur in the Channel. Vincent Delecroixâs acclaimed Small Boat is a fictional first-person account of the French navy officer who took the migrantsâ callsâand her attempts to justify the indefensible. Accused of failing in her duty, she refuses to be held more responsible than others for this disaster, than the crises behind these tragedies. What unfolds is a gripping, thought-provoking examination of the darkest threat to our humanity. Powerful, forceful, and haunting, Small Boat confronts the most difficult but important moral questions of our to what extent are we all complicit? The book appeals to readers who value thoughtful storytelling over constant action. Moments of introspection and dialogue are used effectively to deepen understanding of the characters and their motivations. These quieter elements contribute significantly to the storyâs emotional resonance.
