“An intellectually stimulating journey that embraces the wonders of human existence.” — Publishers Weekly
“A witty and thought-provoking novel that blends fiction, philosophy, science, and humor.” — The Literary Review Journal
Artfully written as a witty and philosophical reflection on life, the universe, and why Edward’s ex-wife doesn’t love him anymore, Curious grapples with the BIG questions—all through a mix of dry self-aware humor and irreverent honesty.
Edward thought his life was all planned out. But when his wife divorces him the day he sells his company, he’s left penniless, afraid, and floundering. Through a series of walks along Sydney’s sparkling harbour and coastal trails with his trusty companion Albert, he’s left to wrestle with the questions he’s always pretended he never had.
And as it turns out, watching a man’s life fall apart has never been so amusing.
From evolution and capitalism to democracy and dinosaurs, Edward and Albert’s talks pepper scientific facts and historical oddities while grappling with existential questions about meaning, God, and how to survive when you’ve missed life’s instruction manual.
As a must-read for fans of The Alchemist, The Midnight Library, Man's Search for Meaning, and Tuesdays with Morrie, author Philos Fablewright doesn’t promise quick fixes or easy solutions. Instead, Curious invites you to come along for the ride, find comfort despite uncertainty, and explore the messy business of being human together.
If you love philosophical fiction that doesn't take itself too seriously, then grab your copy today!
