A stunning, many-layered speculation on the future of humanity, on interaction between cultures, on love and sex, on religion and politics, STARS IN MY POCKETS LIKE GRAINS OF SAND is an enduring masterpiece by one of science fiction’s greatest writers.

The only survivor when his home is utterly destroyed, Rat Korga is transported to a new life on the planet Velm.
