More Than This

People see stories everywhere. That's what my father used to say. We take random events and we put them together in a pattern so we can comfort ourselves with a story, no matter how much it obviously isn't true. We have to lie to ourselves to live. Otherwise, we'd go crazy.

— A philosophical science fiction discussing existentialist ideas, throwing in questions about life, death and the meaning of it all, without ever really answering them. And that's the beauty of this book.
