We live in an age when things that would once have seemed miraculous are starting to seem mundane - even if they still, sometimes, bring with them profound implications... In The Weightless World, Anthony Trevelyan - a new, supremely talented voice in fiction - takes us right up to (and beyond) the limits of possibility. He also weaves a story of deep-rooted humanity, jam-packed with unforgettable characters - and, at its core, an account of friendship, love and loss, which will touch your heart.
