From the back cover
Out at the colonies, one month costs a year.
When Adam is drafted, there is only one way to bring him home. It cannot be bought, or assigned, or asked of a stranger. It asks everything, week after week, for the whole length of the waiting, of someone who already loves the one who left.
He has only Diana to ask. She is twenty-two, with a life she has barely begun to make, and she says yes before she realizes the size of it.
She has fifteen years to understand it now.
A love story measured in the one currency only one of them will ever spend. The Anchoring of Adam is a quiet, luminous, unbearable novel about love, memory, identity and devotion, and the strange distance between keeping a promise and living a life. For readers who want intimate science fiction in which the human consequences matter more than the technology.
