Nothing Missed 'is a poignant story of loss and grief, and a yearning to not feel pain; where a dead Martian serves as the numbing stand-in for our 'connected' modern world. Or is the desire to join with the 'other' a metaphor for racial harmony' Either way this postmodern tale, though it has ephemeral ties with Wells, is thought-provoking and touching.'
