Love and Other Thought Experiments

Sophie Ward

Rachel and Eliza are planning their future together. One night in bed Rachel wakes up terrified and tells Eliza that an ant has crawled into her eye and is stuck there. Rachel is certain; Eliza, a scientist, is sceptical. Suddenly their entire relationship is called into question. What follows is a uniquely imaginitive sequence of interlinked stories ranging across time, place and perspective to form a sparkling philosophical tale of love, lost and found across the universe.

This impressive literary debut takes as its premise and inspiration ten of the best-known thought experiments in philosophy - the ‘what ifs’ of philosophical investigation - and uses them to talk about love in a wholly unique way.
