Howrey's expansive vision left me awestruck.”-Ruth Ozeki, author of A Tale for the Time Being A transcendent, cross-cultural and cross-planetary journey into the mysteries of space and self. The borders between what is real and unreal begin to blur, and each astronaut is forced to confront demons past and present, even as they struggle to navigate their increasingly claustrophobic quarters-and each other.Īstonishingly imaginative, tenderly comedic, and unerringly wise, The Wanderers explores the differences between those who go and those who stay, telling a story about the desire behind all exploration: the longing for discovery and the great search to understand the human heart. But as their surreal pantomime progresses, each soon realizes that the complications of inner space are no less fraught than those of outer space. Constantly observed by Prime Space’s team of "Obbers," Helen, Yoshi, and Sergei must appear ever in control. Helen Kane, Yoshihiro Tanaka, and Sergei Kuznetsov must prove they’re the crew for the historic voyage by spending seventeen months in the most realistic simulation ever created. In four years, aerospace giant Prime Space will put the first humans on Mars. In an age of space exploration, we search to find ourselves. “Howrey's exquisite novel demonstrates that the final frontier may not be space after all.”-J.
