 | Felber refuses the near-universal refusal of the literary to engage with the scientific, he also refuses the intense and sometimes daunting kind of linkage practiced, notably, by the novelist Richard Powers. |
 | Felber’s concocted a counter-factual reality from cutting-room floor scraps, thrown those scraps in a bag with a randomly selected pages from tomes on quantum physics and then managed to wad all of this together for a fraction of a fraction of a second, just long enough for it to become a novel. |
 | Felber has embraced postmodern fiction’s favorite themes—narratives can’t be trusted, reality is subjective, humans are subject to larger forces—and turned it into a work of broad comedy instead of a fit of fatalistic handwringing. |
