“The Logs” by David Brin

February 01, 2017

Ari reads a short story by David Brin. "The Logs" stars a young Russian girl who comes to terms with her life on an asteroid work camp. Brin's style mixes moments of levity with themes of perseverance and struggle. We are faced with the question: is any possible future just a recapitulation of the past? And how can we use those lessons gleaned from the past to endure?
