A Jesuit priest is returning from the wreckage of a distant star. In the ruins of a dead civilisation he has discovered something so dreadful he cannot share it with the rest of the crew. It has broken his faith in God.

A wonderfully imaginative piece from a master of science fiction.

©1958 Arthur C. Clarke
