Books like A Stitch in Time by Andrew J. Robinson
Elim Garak, long exiled on a space station, finally makes his homecoming to Cardassia. The planet he returns to is scarred by death and destruction, with little luxury beyond clean water and a warm bed. A letter from one of the station’s alien inhabitants, Dr. Julian Bashir, forces Garak to confront his complex past—student, gardener, spy, exile, tailor, and liberator—and the way Cardassian society shaped him. His skill as a tailor, a role he long avoided, may be essential to mending the shattered fabric of his homeland. The story follows Garak as he wrestles with the possibility of using his rare craft to stitch together a broken world.
