Becks is nineteen, blasting her Walkman, and hiding from the fact that her beloved uncle, and the only person who understood her, is dead. Luckily, he left her a half-finished video game to complete - one last collaboration to find her way out of loneliness.
Dr. Portman works at the intersection of artificial intelligence and robotics, wrestling with her responsibility to Earth’s precarious future. But increasingly, it seems an exceptional project may transcend everything she believed to be possible…
After decades of life on the sea, Yesiko knows a scavenger’s work is rife with moral compromise. Yet when a long-lost piece of technology walks aboard her ship, she is set on a path toward a sacrifice even she may be unwilling to make.
Linking these women across the centuries is a chain reaction of love, longing, and creativity that reveals our deep interconnectedness. Clear-eyed and hopeful, Homebound imagines how future generations will find meaning in the things we leave behind.
