As part of an interplanetary exchange scheme, a human (from San Francisco) arrives on another planet. He begins to write his journal as he explores the new world and meets the inhabitants.
In this book, you are taken on a transformative journey between two worlds. The narrator is the reader’s eyes and ears on this extraordinary trip from the old and the familiar to the new and surprising, but can his observations be trusted?
We learn about life and friendships in this alien culture through a thought-provoking and profound narrative. Our pioneer gets along very well with Tungy, his exchange partner, but is all as it seems in this alien landscape?
There’s lots to uncover in this story. In a genre of its own. Disturbing, witty and prescient
Here's what readers have to say about this book....
What a quirky book this is. If you take it quite literally, I think you may well miss the meaning. I don't really think it's a sci-fi book at all. Yes, the alien landscape is described splendidly and in some detail, but the more I read into the story, it dawned on me that it's more to do with relationships and emotional states of mind. I love the hand-drawn work. That's one of the book's stronger features, particularly 'Tungy' one of the main characters. Very creative! As a story, I think it's okay. It's only short (you can read it twice in one day!) and although it's a journal/diary of encounters and events, there is quite a strong theme running through the later chapters. There's quite a lot to think about and uncover in this story and some of the words I would use to describe it would be mysterious, disturbing, occasionally funny and magical.
