About this book

Just how far is it from London to Gotham City? Or from Paul Auster to Pierre Menard for that matter? Some people may think these sorts of questions are idle and ultimately meaningless but this book is not for them. Three intertwined narratives play out as the stories of , an isolated loner, DOWN, a depressed publisher, and David Bohm, a real-life quantum theoretician in post-war So Paulo, become entangled.

Dualities of certainty and doubt, hope and fear, and reason and nonsense drag each of the characters struggling into an absurd, labyrinthine world of seemingly infinite regress.
