The Future of the Past

The unnamed narrator goes on a journey that begins with the first space landing on the planet Earth and continues with conversations about the universe, politics, and hatred. She is like a ghost, as she returns to the places where she grew up; places that no longer exist and probably will never exist again. In some places, the narrator meets different people. The thought "The absence of the future has already begun" is revived in their conversations, as well as the consequences of the war and the questions of the coexistence of humanity with itself. The narrator dares to dream about the future while immersing us in the present, which has changed our future forever.
