This collection introduces five highly original short stories that come with strong overtones of science fiction and social comment. A crazed physicist is convinced he has found an infallible way to win the lottery; a dystopian desert city of the future is ruled by state-like corporations; a tin-pot plan is fomented to launch a teapot into orbit around the sun; an emblematic work of nineteenth-century early Impressionism, Le Déjeuner sur l'herbe, is revealed to be set on another planet; and a relationship reaches across a troubling political divide. These are tales that say as much of the future as of our own times. With dark humour they touch on themes which include climate change, isolationism, totalitarianism, and rebellious artificial intelligence.
