When a curious philosophy student investigates a mysterious cave in Bergen, he falls through the earth and discovers an inner world orbiting a subterranean sun. There he encounters walking, talking trees, explores utopian societies with radically different values, and faces exile for challenging their customs. His twelve-year journey through this underground realm becomes a biting commentary on religion, government, equality, and human nature. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
