About this listen

You can listen to this feel-good story for free on your device with the Audible Stories Skill. Just say “Alexa, read me a feel good story,” or “Alexa, read me a story” to hear more free genres.

Layla strives and sacrifices to keep a potted plant alive in a gray, post-climate-change dystopia. For fans of Nina LaCour, this short tale asks: can hope bloom from a single seed?

Emily Grey lives in New York with her wife and their dog. She graduated from SUNY New Paltz with a BA in Creative Writing, and when she's not working on a manuscript, she can be found in her garden, cooking, or playing Dungeons and Dragons with her friends.

Layla does not live in the world that we know. But she is determined to bring back what she remembers of earth. Lovely sweet short story. Nice narration.
