”There is so much space up there that it is childish to think that in a peripheral corner of an ordinary galaxy there should be something uniquely special. Life on Earth gives only a small taste of what can happen in the universe. Our very soul itself is one such small example.”
A pretty good short explanation of modern day physics. Unfortunately it can be quite dense and difficult to read at times; I had to go over most sentences once or twice to understand them. The translated nature of it probably doesn’t help.
I’d highly recommend it if you’re interested in learning about the great questions we’re facing today, but be prepared to put a lot of mental energy into comprehending everything.
“Like a man with diarrhoea in a sandpaper factory, sometimes all available options are less than ideal.”
Yumi and the Nightmare Painter is a beautiful story, engaging from beginning to end. The dialogue and plot are amazing, the world building is fabulous (As one would come to expect with Sanderson), and most importantly, the characters simply feel real.
I couldn’t recommend it enough.
