Irina leaves the solar system to be with Hull, a "man" he's known just two weeks, who won't treat him like a mentally-ill person.
Mini-Review (click to view--possible spoilers)
Pro: Irina starts the journey broken and returns whole.
Con: The story breaks suspension of disbelief too many times to be enjoyable. Aliens where each cell is an independent mind. Disembodied hands that work nevertheless. A green flame that eats people. And is Irina male or female? He has an identical twin brother, but uses a female name. The story never explains it.
There are lots of typos and grammatical errors which detract as well. The names are also a distraction. Dieresis is the two dots over a letter in French, e.g. Noël. The Ramayana is a Hindu holy scripture.

Overly long and unclear what’s going on or even if everything happened at all or just fantasy as things didn’t make much sense
