This Weightless World A Novel by Adam Soto is a thought-provoking novel that challenges traditional science fiction tropes. Set against the backdrop of gentrified cities and the tech boom, the story follows a diverse cast of characters as they navigate the aftermath of alien contact. As the mysterious signal from outer space stops as abruptly as it started, the characters are forced to confront its impact on their lives. Sevi, Ramona, and Eason must come to terms with the consequences of this event, which upends their relationships, sense of purpose, and understanding of themselves. The novel explores themes of morality, powerlessness, and the search for meaning in a world that feels overwhelming. A dazzling deconstruction of science fiction tropes, This Weightless World offers a fresh perspective on the future by looking to the past. With its unique blend of characters, settings, and ideas, this novel is sure to appeal to readers interested in science fiction and philosophical inquiry.
