Mother of Floods is set in our world; ravaged by greed and technology it has seemingly spun beyond human control. The story starts with Martha and Dave, her (reluctantly) dead husband who has chosen a digital universe as his hereafter. Together they embark on a journey to heal their troubled family, which includes overcoming mountains of debt and supporting an anorexic daughter and a gamer son. By questioning what life actually means in a world of 24/7 self-sustaining algorithms, Mother of Floods challenges us to reimagine our own lives, drawing inspiration from a framework provided by some of humanity's very earliest stories.
