Chapter Ends

Chapter Ends

by Poul William Anderson

In a distant future, Earth has become a forgotten relic, its population dwindled to a few million living in simple peace and contentment. However, the tide turns when interstellar politics dictate that all humans must leave their ancestral home. As the forced exodus unfolds, the story focuses on the emotional and philosophical struggle of a single man, wrestling with the profound meaning of Earth to humanity and its significance in his own life. The narrative delves into themes of loss, displacement, and the enduring power of a connection to one's origins.
