Signal & Noise
by John Griesmer
Buy book: $17.43
Signal and Noise is the epic page-turning story of the laying of the trans-Atlantic cable, and the men and women who are caught in its monumental tide. It is also a novel about the collision of worlds seen and unseen: the present and the future; the living and the dead; the real and the imagined.

The book starts slow and boring. But the fifth installment did peak my interest:Chester remembering his daughter, Betty. I might continue to read this book.
