When Andrea Barrett won the National Book Award in 1996 for Ship Fever, her breakout book, it marked a shift in her writing style from contemporary settings to past centuries and a focus on scientists as characters.
Barrett's later works, including The Voyage of the Narwhal and Servants of the Map, continue to incorporate scientific themes but emphasize human character and community over science, with a dense interconnected narrative through shared characters.
