Torenhoog en mijlen breed: een toekomstverhaal

Edu, a young planetary researcher, longs for forests on a future where Earth’s woods are gone. He travels to Venus, where people live safely under a dome and are warned that the forests outside are dangerous and off-limits.

Drawn by curiosity, Edu leaves the controlled habitat and enters the strange wilderness. There he discovers that the world is far more complex than the computers and authorities have claimed, including beings with a very different way of knowing and communicating.

As Edu pushes deeper into the Venusian woods, the story turns into a mix of exploration, psychological tension, and first contact. The book follows his changing understanding of danger, trust, and the unknown, while leaving some questions open rather than resolving everything neatly.
