Winner of the 2019 Whirling Prize "Strong on science but just this
side of poetry." -Nature A beautifully illustrated exploration of
the principles, laws, and wonders that rule our universe, our
world, and our daily lives, from the New York Times bestselling
creator of Lost in Translation Have you ever found yourself
wondering what we might have in common with stars, or why the Moon
never leaves us? Thinking about the precise dancing of planets, the
passing of time, or the nature of natural things? Our world is full
of unshakable mystery, and although we live in a civilization more
complicated than ever, there is simplicity and reassurance to be
found in knowing how and why. From the New York Times bestselling
creator of Lost in Translation, Eating the Sun is a delicately
existential, beautifully illustrated, and welcoming exploration of
the universe-one that examines and marvels at the astonishing
principles, laws, and phenomena that we exist alongside, that we
sit within. "[A] lyrical and luminous celebration of science and
our consanguinity with the universe. . . . Playful and poignant."
