Summer

di Nerine Dorman (Autore)

StoryTime, 2025

In the far future on the outer reaches of the great human space diaspora Hannali and her husband Mika, third generation Diasporan, toil daily under alien skies on their farm. On a break into town Hannali is spotted by Summer, a childhood friend, on a scaffold waiting to be hanged. What ensues is a touching tale of choices made, different paths taken, bonds formed and broken, what makes us who we are, and how we travel through life.
