Transience (Arthur C Clarke short story)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Transience" is a doomsday short story by Arthur C. Clarke.
Probably the most interesting aspect of this story is its opening part - reluctant exploration of the surrounding world by a little child in a way that reminds of the first story in "2001 A Space Odyssey".
The story is told through the medium of three children playing at about the same physical location on earth, but across vast gulfs of time.
