Strange Labour

"Strange Labour" explores themes of humanity and survival in a universe indifferent to our existence, set against a backdrop of a post-apocalyptic landscape where most have left the cities to build monumental earthworks. The story centers on a marginalized, isolated community living off remnants of the past and trying to find meaning in their constrained world. As Miranda journeys through this desolate land and encounters Dave, who holds unusual beliefs about the apocalypse, the novel offers a thought-provoking re-imagining of classic post-apocalyptic tropes.
