I read a book Years ago or at least parts of it and have been trying to find it again..

all i can remember about it was a man in an old fashioned diving suit (pic related) walking around a destroyed city and writing a journel of what he saw. Infact i think the entire book was from his perspective.. iirc it there was also a dreaminess about it.. Any ideas as to what it could have been?

Longitude doesn't describe the z-axis, which is what we're discussing.

bump, seriously op's book sounds awesome.

>> No.2011105

I'd also like to find out what book this is. It sounds incredible.

>> No.2011121

Looking for two books:

1st: This book is about a man that goes into a deep underwater research thing. He then gets attacked by a squid or something, but loses his memory of it.

2nd: Book focuses around a young non-jewish boy who gets rounded up with his jewish friend in a camp. He escapes and travels a long road. Can't remember if he makes it

Read these in 5th grade, so theyre quite old

>> No.2011459

I'm kind of interested to know what OP was reading.

Bump.
