How To live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe
Why are the fate of our fathers so important? How to live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe is about another protagonist passively obsessed with finding his Father. We watch as Charles Yu meet Luke Skywalker's son, relive the high points of his not so remarkable life and shoot himself and therefore getting stuck in a time loop. The only thing interesting about the book is the background- the Science fictional Universe- Minor Universe 31. Of course Time travel pseudoscience is always been fascinating and Yu nails it. The concepts are complex witout being abstruse. In short, How to live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe has great set pieces, but a pedestrian storyline makes it only a so-so read.
