"The Sparrow" by Mary Doria Russell follows a Jesuit mission to make first contact with an alien civilization on the planet Rakhat. Led by Father Emilio Sandoz, the team of botanists, linguists, and priests embarks on an exploration filled with hope, only to encounter unforeseen dangers and moral dilemmas. As the story unfolds, it delves into themes of faith, friendship, and the struggle to understand both humanity and the alien culture. The narrative moves between the mission's harrowing aftermath and the illuminating experiences of the team, exploring the complexities of belief in the face of profound existential challenges.
