The book the world needs to read is Orbital. This is the perspective we must share...otherwise I'm afraid our beautiful blue dot will be lost and so will we. We all know this . Her writing is just superb: a new space lyricism, a love poem , a kind humanity.

Orbital is a novel that takes realism's engagement with time and space to new heights ( literally and figuratively). Its lyrical prose offers a perspective on how we are tied to each other on earth across borders in profound ways, and offers us a planetary perspective of existence, which the 21st century needs. A rich new addition to all those "day in the life of" novels. My favored winner

-- a work of originality, wisdom, and beauty.
