The Dazzle of Day by Molly Gloss

I definitely want to add a content warning to this of a rape scene on page, and references to the death of a young child in the past.
This, I'm going to be honest, was almost a DNF. It has a very slow, literary style of writing that took me a short while to get used to. However once I was there and in the story it was gripping and beautiful. I looked at a lot of themes within a traditional structure of 'fleeing a dying earth, life on a space vessel'. Life, death, family, community, sickness, etc.
I was left a bit stunned by the end, I'm not going to lie. I really enjoyed this and the carry away I ultimately got here.
