    The Wayfinder by Adam Johnson, an expansive (768-page) literary novel set in primitive times in the islands of the south seas. The over-arching theme is humanity’s need to exploit the earth’s resources to support its own survival and procreation. (If you run out of resources on an island, the only thing to do is to conquer another island.) It’s primitive man in a Petri dish, with the attending existential struggle.
