Qualiens

About the Book

In Tucson, Arizona, Marland is attempting to contact extraterretrials using a homebrew SETI project. In Indiana, Leah longs to have a baby, but complications arise after her lover departs suddenly with several of her major appliances. Connie has been transplanted from Indiana to South Carolina and then abandoned there by her boyfriend. When Marland succeeds in contacting aliens (who call themselves "Qua") everyone's lives are changed forever in very strange ways. Qualiens consists of three novellas, each complete in itself and together comprising a story of love, lost children, spacetime oddities, fortune telling, burglaries, amateur detectives, Shakespeare, and more love.
