It was as if we'd reached the minimum critical point of a
mathematical curve. Imagine a parabola. Zero point down, at the
bottom of an abyss. That's how low we sank. The year is 1993. Cuba
is at the height of the Special Period, a widespread economic
crisis following the collapse of the Soviet bloc.For Julia, a
mathematics lecturer who hates teaching, this is Year Zero: the
lowest possible point. But a way out appears: the search for a
missing document that will prove the telephone was invented in
Havana, secure her reputation, and give Cuba a purpose once more.
What begins as an investigation into scientific history becomes a
tangle of sex, friendship, family legacies, and the intricacies of
how people find ways to survive in a country at its lowest ebb.
