The employee of a library-planet grapples with industrial espionage. The connection between an indie comic and a local boogie-man is discovered by a group of friends. In a future museum of the mind, a nostalgia-addicted curator tries to understand the emotions of 20th century humans. An Anglo-Saxon traveller narrates her journey into the Artic regions to her Queen. A group of friends tries to capture the last pink-footed goose on Planet Earth...
Marian Womack's new collection of short stories shows us how the then and the now, the future and the past, are made of the same particles. Loneliness, nostalgia and its dark ghosts, and the possibilities for humanity if technology and preservation dovetail, are brought together with Womack's characteristic crossing of genres, places and moods. Out Through the Window, Into the Dark is a collection for our and future times, movingly demonstrating the devastating consequences of our collective actions.
