Art is medicine; drink of it and heal.
Art is light; bask in it and brighten.
Art is wings; spread it wide and uplift.
Aboard the LSS Prudentia, mid-generational space travelers must live a life of restrained feeling. The arts are a powerful tool to keep the populace content and diverted, but never emotionally compromised.
Susanna Plumpet believes strongly in her work for the Department of Suitability in Art and Entertainment. When she is stirred by an illicit collection of poetry, however, she is forced to question the mores that govern their transient society. And when a captivating neighbor reveals a secret hidden deep within the ship, she is compelled to make an impossible choice her lifelong convictions or a desire for something new.
Prudentia A Short Story eBook March McCarron
When I was a kid, I consumed science fiction anthologies at an alarming rate. Many of these claimed to be "best of", and to a large extent, they were.Prudentia easily belongs in any of those volumes. It's a memorable story, with McCarron's deeper themes and details, and the setting-- a generational ship-- lets the author play with Orwellian shadows that confirm what we've known on earth for some time. There is a war on art, and it's impossible for creativity to thrive in a vacuum, be it here or in the depths of space.
Read this story. It taps in to the general fear that we Americans enjoy during every political silly season, and it's bittersweet, nostalgic, and ominous, but beautifully so. Then, read anything March writes, because she's just that good.

Prudentia A Short Story eBook March McCarron Reviews
I loved everything about this book. It's imaginative and yet entirely believable. I usually read short stories because longer books seem daunting but in this I didn't want it too end. I've read a lot of sci-fi. As far as sci-fi short stories this is my absolute favorite.
This story was quite good. I was impressed with the character development. I'm a fan of futuristic books and this fit the bill really well. I wasn't a big fan of the ending, but the story made up for it. It was very enjoyable to read. Thank you March McCarron. You got me very involved with the characters.
I’ve forgotten just how fun short stories can be! Prudentia is a thought-provoking and intriguing vacation into the world of Sci-fi. short fiction and explores how one futuristic society’s extreme views about art has threatened the very nature of what it means to be human. In traditional Sci-fi style, March McCarron skillfully carries the reader right to the last line wondering which way humanity will turn. A fun read.
Amount great tale by the author. Felt a connection to the main character after just a few pages. Thanks for sharing this story with us.
I loved it! I wish it wasn't a short story and I could read more!
