Rakhat. La última Misión De La Compañía by Mary Doria Russell
La última Misión De La Compañía
A Jesuit linguist recounts the ill-fated first contact mission to the alien world of Rakhat after Earth intercepts haunting music, telling in flashback how idealistic scientific and religious intentions collided with cultural misunderstandings and brutal local power dynamics; the mission’s catastrophic outcome leaves him the sole returning survivor, physically and spiritually shattered, facing investigation and moral scrutiny while the novel probes faith, guilt, the ethics of intervention, and the human cost of trying to know and change another civilization.
