520    One book. Two readers. A world of mystery, menace, and 
       desire. A young woman picks up a book left behind by a 
       stranger. Inside it are his margin notes, which reveal a 
       reader entranced by the story and by its mysterious 
       author. She responds with notes of her own, leaving the 
       book for the stranger, and so begins an unlikely 
       conversation that plunges them both into the unknown. The 
       book: Ship of Theseus, the final novel by a prolific but 
       enigmatic writer named V.M. Straka, in which a man with no
       past is shanghaied onto a strange ship with a monstrous 
       crew and launched onto a disorienting and perilous 
       journey. The writer: Straka, the incendiary and secretive 
       subject of one of the world's greatest mysteries, a 
       revolutionary about whom the world knows nothing apart 
       from the words he wrote and the rumors that swirl around 
       him. The readers: Jennifer and Eric, a college senior and 
       a disgraced grad student, both facing crucial decisions 
       about who they are, who they might become, and how much 
       they're willing to trust another person with their 
       passions, hurts, and fears. Between the pages, online, and
       in the real world, evidence of their interaction, ephemera
       that brings this tale vividly to life. S., conceived by 
       filmmaker J. J. Abrams and written by award-winning 
       novelist Doug Dorst, is the chronicle of two readers 
       finding each other in the margins of a book and enmeshing 
       themselves in a deadly struggle between forces they don't 
       understand, and it is also Abrams and Dorst's love letter 
       to the written word.
