a novel about survival

“The world isn’t full of problem solvers, but we have more than our fair share.” - Peter

“We are building history with software architecture. Every decision we make as individuals or as a unit, a team or an organisation, means we are making work for our future selves or others. The decisions are almost ad-hoc and the output is abstract but the reality is that it will cause us to work.” - Beth

"You've no idea how much this hurts me" - Chrissie
