Cosa si prova a salvare vite nel Mediterraneo? Per capirlo puoi solo salire a bordo. "Nel Mediterraneo la vita la cerchi, la perdi o la trovi, e questa riduzione all'essenziale è potentissima. Senza orpelli, senza scappatoie, ti lascia a nudo confronto con una nuda alternativa, ti spoglia come l'acqua. Ma la chiave per capirlo non è il sentimento della morte. È il sentimento della vita". In questi anni, le navi delle Ong che soccorrono i migranti sono state al centro di polemiche e narrazioni ostili. Ma pochi conoscono quello che succede davvero a bordo.

What if we didn't put a leash on love? What if the actual love experience could mean more and not less? This is not the society we grew up in.

But especially the outer form, the part of us everybody sees but no one truly cares about.

Questo libro inizia con un episodio dell'Eneide: il naufragio dei Troiani sulle coste di Cartagine (nei pressi dell'odierna Tunisi, nel canale di Sicilia) mentre sono diretti in Italia. Enea e i suoi vengono accolti dalla regina Didone in nome dell'umanità e del rispetto verso gli dèi, perché le frontiere si chiudono di fronte agli aggressori, non ai naufraghi. Scrive Bettini: "Ci sono troppi dispersi nel mare che fu di Virgilio, troppi cadaveri che fluttuano a mezz'acqua perché quei versi si possano ancora leggere solo come poesia. Sono diventati cronaca".
