How I’ve been summarizing this story to people: “It’s a story about a girl from Venus who’s in love with a robot who doesn’t love her back, so she goes to Greenland to look for a man may have downloaded his mind into a reindeer.” The characters Katja & Pierre from an earlier story, Posthuman Playground (currently unavailable, as it’s being sent around to publishers right now), reappear as adults. The story was inspired by the Pixies song of the same title, which is quite possibly my favorite song.
