This novel by Arthur C. Clarke was first published in 1979, and won both the Hugo and Nebula awards. It describes the construction of a space elevator. It is a story about hope, human tenacity and daring to dream big. What moves me is how we come to realise how small we are individually, and yet how big a purpose we can be part of, when we learn to see beyond ourselves.
