| Annotation | After the collapse of civilization, a new, better, sustainable, one is built, which is described by an elderly, partially paralyzed woman being treated in Hospital City and then released into to her own apartment with all the support she needs. In this future there are relatively few cities, and those quite small, but advanced medicine, major museums, and the like need a certain population base. The hospital grows most of its own food. No fossil fuels but with the internet. Everything had slowed down. The story was one of the five in the runner up category of XR’s 2021 Solarpunk Storytelling Showcase. |
