“It’s a lucky thing you came. There’s something I want to show you. Something strange.” — Isaac Asimov In Youth, legendary science fiction master Isaac Asimov spins a deceptively simple tale of discovery, friendship, and the fragility of perception. When two boys stumble upon strange creatures on a farm, a world-changing revelation slowly begins to unfold. Told with subtle irony and masterful restraint, this story examines what it means to be young, to be alien, and to look at life through innocent—but not always accurate—eyes. Packed with mystery and philosophical depth, Youth delivers a surprising twist that challenges assumptions and reveals just how blurred the line between alien and familiar can be.
