A collection of short stories about life, the universe and everything. This book fuses travel writing and social realism with fantasy and philosophy in a series of vignettes which, like life, may or may not be interconnected. Voices from all over the planet and beyond argue for and against some of society's most important questions as the book asks us to examine our place in the universe and what we want for our futures. From communal utopia to totalitarian dystopia a cast of heroes, anti-heroes, villains, victims, miscreants and martyrs will guide you in a search for truth which, like life, is sometimes beautiful and sometimes tragic.
Originally published in 2012, revised in 2014, see below for reviews of the first edition. nb. This book is not about the technological singularity, it's much more important than that.
Contains some adult themes and some childlike ones too.
