Hi, what is the meaning of "The world above becomes a faint echo." in the following text?
Being in the trial, the lawyer once said, is like being submerged in deep water for weeks at a time. The world above becomes a faint echo. War, scandal, and natural disaster may occur, but non of it seems to matter.
Thanks
