Adam Mathews was always talking and walking around sharing his philosophical thoughts. That was true until he met Gloria Furtwangler, a female feminist who claimed to have been made in a factory inside the dwarf planet, Ceres.
Sensing a kindred spirit, Adam Mathews became a science fiction writer just so that Gloria Furtwangler might write a book about him. She had already written several books about Austrian science fiction writers, including the infamous Anthony Staarkard. Perhaps she would want to write a book about an Australian author, too, if his works were sufficiently cerebral, Adam speculated.
Agreeing to co-write a biography of Warren Aartplonk was a promising first step in this budding intellectual romance. Aartplonk had intrigued his readers for decades because of his views about flying saucers and sperm whales. But Adam still needed to prove that he was a feminist to truly win Furtwangler's heart. As a visitor from space, she was not easily impressed by empty words or moral posturing. Adam would need to do or write something real to prove that he respected women as much as Gloria Furtwangler wished.
With the discovery of an Earthlike planet complete with its own Sydney Harbour Bridge, and its own chain of family-friendly hamburger restaurants called McDonald's, and its own Stonehenge and Cold War, Adam Mathews thought he had stumbled upon a way to prove that he was a feminist without his motivations being called into question. If you lived on Earth, or on an Earthlike planet, you would want to know which was which, wouldn't you?
"The philosophical thoughts of Adam Mathews have at last been compressed into one unputdownable intellectual sandwich" - John Feelgood
"This welcome volume is like a fight between a tour de force and a magnum opus" - Anzh Suzuki
