Our Tragic Universe by

Scarlett Thomas

Reviews

"Our Tragic Universe surprised me, and in such a terrific way. It is so addictive, you can’t help but fall deeper and deeper under Scarlett Thomas’s spell. She’s a genius."

Douglas Coupland

Summary

Could a story save your life? If Kelsey Newman's theory about the end of time is true, we are all going to live forever. But who would want that? Certainly not Meg, a bright spark trapped in a hopeless relationship. But if she can work out the connection between a wild beast on Dartmoor, a ship in a bottle, the science of time a knitting pattern for the shape of the universe, she might just find a way out.

“To a man born without conscience, a soul-stricken man must seem ridiculous. To a criminal, honesty is foolish. You must not forget that a monster is only a variation, and that to a monster the norm is monstrous.”
