Aa nice enough story, well written and capturing the languid nature of life and love in a sapping heat, but not SF, and barely speculative.
A collection of excellent stories.

Nancy Kress. Act One. More of an Analog story than an Asimovs. Genetic modification is
Harry Turtledove. News From the Front. Alternate History relating the role played by FD Roosevelt
