## Description

Running from the stifling crowds and emotional exhaustion of Earth, a cynical human interest columnist seeks ultimate freedom aboard the starship Albert E., venturing deep into uncharted space. His escape from humanity seems ideal until the vast distances begin to warp his understanding of time, memory, and connection itself. This sharply observant science fiction tale delves into the unforeseen consequences of technological progress that outpaces the human heart. As the crew pushes beyond known space, the profound emotional isolation proves far more unsettling than any physical danger. Winston Marks masterfully blends hard scientific speculation with biting social commentary, crafting a story that explores whether our most human instincts can truly be left behind, or if they inevitably follow us into the stars. It’s a journey of escape that unearths the unexpected power of longing and reunion.
