The Philip K. Dick Award-winning short story collection from Sarah Pinsker, author of the Nebula Award-winning A Song for a New Day.

This Philip K. Dick Award-winning short story collection turns readers into travellers to the past and the future, and explorers of the weirder points of the present.

The baker's dozen stories gathered here turn readers into travellers to the past and the future, and explorers of the weirder points of the present. The journey is the thing as Pinsker weaves music, memory, technology, history, mystery, love, loss, and even multiple selves on generation ships and cruise ships, on highways and high seas, in murder houses and treehouses. They feature runaways, fiddle-playing astronauts and retired time travellers.

Weird, wired, hopeful, haunting, and often beautiful, Sarah Pinsker's stories cast a searching light on human nature. But what the heart wants is not always right, or easy.
