Ohayo
is
the
Japanese
word
for
"Good
morning."
The
poems
in
this
book
follow
the
traditional
form,
but
spring
out
of
the
Ohio
heartlands.
Whether
read
as
a
morning
greeting
or
at
some
other
time
of
day,
they
are
meant
to
inspire
and
soothe
like
a
greeting
from
an
old
friend.

Orfin
and
Borthid
have
just
completed
their
long
journey
from
Earth
to
Galcon,
a
planet
balanced
between
two
suns.
They
are
met
by
the
ambassador
who
has
been
assigned
to
the
planetary
outpost.
The
two
are
"Discontinueds,"
which
means
that
they
belong
to
a
class
of
people
rendered
sterile
by
a
virus
which
has
ravaged
Earth.
Through
a
lottery
set
up
by
the
Planetary
Council,
they
have
been
chosen
"Citizen
Explorers,"
and
begin
a
new
life
on
Galcon.

When
an
asteroid
strike
in
Antarctica
throws
the
earth
into
volcanic
winter,
a
small
group
of
sailors
seeks
refuge
away
from
the
forces
of
destruction.
Survival
depends
on
their
leaving
behind
the
technologies
of
the
twenty-first
century
and
reconnecting
with
the
rhythms
of
nature.
Surrounded
by
calamity,
these
families
discover
the
strength
of
community
that
is
based
on
values
that
extend
beyond
kinship.

Take
a
fascinating
look
inside
the
old
Ohio
Penitentiary
as
you
follow
a
group
of
inmates
who
meet
weekly
under
the
tutelage
of
a
lifer
named
Zeno
in
a
group
called
the
Epictetus
Club.
The
inmates
study
the
teachings
of
this
Greek
philosopher,
and
with
the
help
of
his
ancient
wisdom
they
meet
the
daily
challenges
of
their
lives.
Learning
to
think
outside
the
limits
of
their
own
literal
walls
as
they
struggle
to
redeem
themselves,
the
club
members
show
us
how
to
think
beyond
our
own
self-imposed
limitations
and
comfort
zones.
