M.L. Dumars, literary winner of Critical MASS 11, presents her latest exhibition. This captivating story delves into a dystopian world where romance and revolution collide. Through Dumars’ storytelling, we follow the journey of a reserved librarian Empath and her spirited son, whose encounter with a strait-laced Security Agent sparks both passion and rebellion. In a society that condemns their very existence, Dumars invites us to ponder themes of autonomy and human connection with her poignant narrative.
