Exploring the interplay between the unknown and our understanding of it, the book investigates whether its focus lies in the nature of the unknowns themselves or our knowledge of them, merging ontology and epistemology. It presents an analogy involving the largest integer, illustrating how certain concepts remain inherently indistinguishable despite our general knowledge. The narrative delves into the limits of human cognition and communication, emphasizing the challenge of defining the unknowable and the inherent accessibility issues of such identities.
