The Face of the Waters
Robert Silverberg
Deep in the future, natives of the planet Hydros, an ocean planet whose inhabitants live on artificial floating islands, force the human population into exile, leaving them to ponder their fate, their past, and the true purpose of humanity.
After a human offense against the natives of Hydros, the human population of the island of Sorve are ordered to leave. Forbidden on all other islands, in a flotilla of ships they seek the semi-mythical island of the Face of the Waters. During their journey they are forced to learn more about themselves, leading to questions about both religion and the purpose of Man. At the end of the novel Robert Silverberg addresses what it means to be human.
