In Surrender, Jess asks, "What if hot flashes were actually highly valued superpowers that heal and fuel the multiverse?
Like comic book clippings, Jess moves beyond... with mangoes, tuning forks, and space travel!
If hot flashes triggered real life empathy, would violence become obsolete?
Would dance be necessary?
What could our future feel like?
