C tells the story of Serge Carrefax, born in 1898 to a father who runs a school for the deaf while experimenting with early wireless communication. Serge's childhood is spent between silence and the noise of static, a duality that follows him as he becomes a radio operator in World War I. The novel explores themes of technology, communication, and the birth of the modern era.
