In the early 1960s, a French physicist with a precocious genius and a Soviet science fiction writer with a fertile imagination are unknowingly working on the same concept: the existence of universes parallel to our own, which would explain the very nature of our reality.
Some decades later, their children - the leader of a renowned rock band and a media-savvy futurologist - are each haunted by their father's legacy and confronted with strange events at the same time...
Frédéric Sonntag continues his exploration of pop-culture mythologies, the history of ideologies and the mutations of capitalism. At once a fable about the fate of our existences, an analysis of our perception of reality and a journey to the frontier of our fantasies and memories, Other Worlds probes our need to imagine more habitable elsewhere and still believe in the existence of new possibilities.
This dizzyingly constructed text devours like an SF novel and offers infinite creative stakes.
