It’s a commonplace, to say we’re strangers to ourselves – not only when we are alone, but especially when...

Thinking Scientifically is John Fraser's latest wildly original, experimental work of fiction: three stories ('The Opera', 'Round the World', 'The Shaft') centred on one theme: while we can think scientifically, can we be scientifically? We can train as scientists - but that's a job, and when we stop doing it - we're the same chimpanzee types as everybody else. When we think scientifically, what happens to all the other layers, the modalities, systems, of thought and being: the magical, the religious, the hunting and the gathering, the philosophical, the artistic...? The characters in the ...

The governments started to crumble in 2073. There was no war. Just a collapse. I knew it was coming. I prepared. I collected a library of books - real, physical, paper books on subjects that I thought would be helpful. I found an abandoned military bunker for sale outside a small city in the wilderness. I didn’t bother to pay for it. I just moved in. Right now, I was just entering the closest thing we had to a city within two days’ driving distance. There were a few small towns closer but nothing that would have what I needed. I was looking for one place in particular. A bell rang as I ...

“Webster defines a hero as a mythological or legendary hero of divine descent endowed with great strength or ability. That’s the first definition. There isn’t even an entry for super hero. Not yet. But even if there was one, it would probably be just as bad at informing one about exactly what makes a hero, about the bought lessons and brave daring which are requisites to be one of those individuals rare enough to know both the adoration and fear of the common man."
