| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "A Place So Foreign" by Cory Doctorow is a collection of science fiction stories written in the early 21st century. The stories explore themes of time travel, cultural clashes, and the impact of technology on everyday life. The opening tale follows a boy named James, whose father, an ambassador, disappears during a trip to 1975, leading James and his mother back to their home in 1898 Utah, where James must navigate the complexities of growing up and the legacy of his father. The opening of the tale presents an imaginative premise where time travel intersects with the protagonist's coming-of-age journey. It begins with James reflecting on his father's disappearance, interspersed with memories of a world that merges the past and a future filled with peculiar inventions and societal norms. Through the incredible backdrop of two eras – one steeped in tradition and the other brimming with futuristic elements – James grapples with his identity and relationships, particularly after returning to his home community. His interactions with friends and adults reveal deeper themes of loss, nostalgia, and the challenge of reconciling disparate worlds. The narrative sets the stage for a richly layered exploration of culture and personal growth, enticing readers into Doctorow's uniquely crafted universe.
