Hermione's Day Off

On the planet Bisbane, gender roles are strictly divided, with women enjoying education and technology while men are confined to wilderness preserves. Hermione, a Bisbani woman, seeks a male partner to have a child and faces challenges in accessing male resources, leading her to seek help from an off-world human male. Their interaction sparks questions about morality and necessity amid a society with rigid gender inequality. Jimm Grogan's story explores themes of gender, romance, and reproduction, reminiscent of classic science fiction.
