Mobius Dick

Andrew Crumey’s “Mobius Dick” is a brilliantly creative story that combines comedy, philosophy, historical fantasy, and techno-thriller elements. The characters in the book include psychos, scientists, composers, and geniuses. “Mobius Dick” explores the evolution of a concept behind its engrossing storyline: how genuine is reality? The novel’s other universe features connections to our reality through quantum computer experiments,

Nazi Germany overtaking Great Britain, and Erwin Schrödinger’s inability to discover the wave equation that bears his name. The science-fiction story revolves around a secret mountain hospital in the Scottish highlands, and the title humorously parodies “Moby-Dick.” A fascinating narrative is created by weaving stories together that are inspired by literary and historical classics.
