Synopsis

"Slow Life" is a science fiction novelette by American writer Michael Swanwick, originally published in the December 2002 issue of Analog Science Fiction. It won the Hugo Award for Best Novelette in 2003. The story is set on Titan. The author wrote: "I liked Titan specifically because there was a lot known about its chemistry and geography, but most people were not familiar with it, so a story set there would feel fresh to them."
