Synopsis

On the poisonous, icy surface of Ganymede, young Manuel joins the settlers struggling to terraform Jupiter's moon into a habitable world. Their greatest obstacle is the Aleph, an unknowable alien artifact that has roamed Ganymede for millennia, destroying terraforming efforts and haunting human dreams. A coming-of-age story that transplants Faulkner's "The Bear" to the frozen moons of Jupiter.
