"Shocking! But, yes, possible in view of what is happening now. Future fiction forces me to see a wider view of today. Just imagine, a world without the many technologies we are addicted to! But maybe the only way we can rediscover who we really are. Or, at least were, for a hundred thousand years." This story tells of an imagined future, when, after a storm of worldwide chaos, wars and insurrections, a string of natural and man-made disasters and diseases, survivors find ancient ways of being human, harking back to before we were tamed and set ourselves apart from the earth.
