Time's Well

The time is the not-too-distant future. The place is familiar yet very different. A cataclysm has happened, and a new yet strangely old world has emerged. Legends continue to be played out. A novella in two main volumes, this is a tale of those legends. In the first volume, a man and a woman meet and go on a journey to fulfill their destinies. The first volume ends with the birth of their child. In the second volume, the child tells his story. The novella ends with the mother's reflection on what happened and the child's arrival at his destination. This is a tale that explores the nature of the cosmos through the unfolding of a familiar legend in an unfamiliar way.

The author is a retired teacher living in the southeast of England. Mentally and spiritually, he roams the cosmos.
