Al Clark is going home.

His wife of thirty-two years has passed away and the kids have moved on. There is no reason to stay in the village they founded. After an absence of seventy-four years, Al returns to an Earth he does not recognize in search of his past. Amnesia has robbed him of the first forty-two years of his life, and he hopes to recover them. It was supposed to be an easy trip, where he would sleep through the long journey and be awakened upon arrival.

The universe had different plans.
