Texas Twenties
by Shay Zutshi

Across the universe, the agricultural colony of Cursa is quietly failing. Ea grows up haunted by his mother’s suicide and the certainty that out here, life will never improve. When he meets April, a girl from a neighbouring planet, their bond is all-consuming, stretching across the vastness of space. But on April’s world, something nameless is taking hold — and may tear them apart for good. Bleak and tender, The Last Human Worlds is a meditation on grief, intimacy, and the meaning of failure.
