Somewhere: a Primer for the End of Days

By Marisela Treviño Orta
Oct. 28 – Nov. 6, 2022

 

…What now?

…Let’s just be still for a little while and see what happens.

 

Sometime, somewhere, something went wrong. Now almost all the insects are gone, and crops are failing everywhere. With society on the verge of collapse, entomologist Cassandra and her brother Alexander prepare to follow the migration of the last monarch butterflies in the world.

But it’s not just butterflies that they’re following: sometimes Cassandra has visions. These tiny glimpses of the future don’t always make sense, but they always come true. When they encounter a group of survivors at a remote truffle farm, the pieces of Cassandra’s latest vision begin to fall into place.

Poetic, provocative, and magical, SOMEWHERE: A PRIMER FOR THE END OF DAYS presents a vision of the future where evolution is not only essential but inevitable.
