This book explores some new ways of framing reality, looking aging and death straight in the eye, and telling the fictional story of a family of survivors of the Great Shift in the year 2125. They live hard and they live well: they have had to learn from the mistakes of their forebears, have survived despite great hardship, and they know how to turn adversity into an adventure. They live a life that might be called "utopian." Buddhist teacher Joanna Macy says, "This is a rare, brave and most original book; I am honored you have shared it with me...
