SECTION IV
ENCOUNTERS WITH THE ALIEN
The largest grouping of stories centres on encounters with the alien. âThe Forgotten Onesâ by Karin Lowachee explores questions of vengeance, dispossession, and land settlement through the perspective of the struggle of a small group of freedom fighters. The title of Greg Van Eekhoutâs âNative Aliensâ captures the paradox at the heart of his story as a Dutch Indonesian boy in the present and a Brevan-Terran boy in the future both face relocation. Celu Amberstone picks up the theme of relocation in her story âRefugeesâ during a planet-wide apocalyptic future. âTrade Windsâ by devorah major is an examination of the two very different world-views of the exchange of goods and services. Carole McDonnellâs âLingua Francaâ explores the cultural gains and losses when a new society faces the powerful economic force of the Earthers. And Ven Begamudréâs âOut of Syncâ gives us a widowâs transgressive yet hopeful love on a planet facing a looming bloodbath between humans and aliens.
