Synopsis
How do you live on a world about to destroy itself? Individuals live with impending disaster, yet people can find hope and joy even in the worst situations. Fourteen stories from the four countries of the planet Verdant on the verge of global war. Yet the stories also progress through a larger tale as destruction looms closer with each tale. What will people do?
Includes the award-winning story “Fishing Hands,” first place Gold, 2022 Royal Palm Literary Awards.
