"First published in the United Kingdom in 2014 by Orion Children's Books, London."
Four linked stories of discovery and survival begin with a Paleolithic-era girl who makes the first written signs, continue with Anna, who people call a witch, then a mad twentieth-century poet who watches the ocean knowing the horrors it hides, and concluding with an astronaut on the first spaceship from Earth sent to colonize another world.

A Must-Read submitted by alumeng.ajl on June 17, 2016, 3:45pm This book messes with your head in the best way possible. Told in four short stories which only seem tangentially connected, each is incredibly strong and will stay with you.
