Longer

Selected Top Title of the Year for 2019
by Tor editor-in-chief, Liza Trombi

Available from Tor.com Publishing.

“Blumlein gives us Waiting for Godot, set in space, in succinct and intelligent storytelling.”

Library Journal, 2019.

“The story itself is spare and demands close attention, as whole worlds and lives are sketched with a few well-chosen details … This intriguing thought experiment will please readers who like to contemplate the meaning of it all.”

Kirkus Review, 2019.

 

“Bittersweet and thought-provoking, Longer asks questions about quality of life, aging, and the ethics surrounding death … an excellent book for book clubs and anyone who enjoys a story that generates more questions than it answers, allowing for colorful discussions.”

Booklist, 2019.
