In Oxfordshire, an elderly man protests the cutting down of an ancient beech tree by chaining himself to its trunk. In the depths of space, two evacuees from a scorched and barren Earth consider whether to tell the rest of the crew that their old home may be starting to heal...

With stories spanning hundreds of years - from the far side of the 22nd century all the way back to the darkest days of lockdown - they pose questions about personal responsibility that cannot be easily answered.

Each story creates a pellucid space in a chaotic world; her characters grapple with life and engage
