THE TRIVIAL UNIVERSE
The Trivial Matter of the Universe
A novel by Adrian Stride
The Trivial Matter of the Universe is a comic speculative novel about Felix Culpa, an ordinary nobody, and Alfred, an immobile artificial intelligence with a secret criminal record and an unfulfilled passion for shoes.
Thrown across time and the known Universe, they become entangled with the avatars of three governmental black holes: Birth, Marriage and Death.
It is not life as we know it, but it feels uncomfortably familiar.
WHAT READERS ARE SAYING
★★★★★
“I felt like I did the first time I picked up a Discworld book.”
There is clever wordplay and witty insight, great banter and really fun characters.
Highly recommended if you’re into either Discworld or The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy—or both.
