Perfect for you if...

  • You love hard science-fiction that treats wild premises (consciousness uploading, digital resurrection) as serious philosophical territory, not window dressing.
  • You're drawn to stories where historical and fictional characters collide across time, forcing them to reckon with radically different worlds.
  • You appreciate ambitious, idea-dense novels that swing for cosmology, AI, art, and the nature of immortality in a single narrative.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer character-driven narratives with intimate emotional arcs. This book prioritises conceptual spectacle and intellectual debate.
  • You want straightforward plotting. Selfie stacks multiple timelines, resurrections, and philosophical detours that demand active engagement.
  • You're looking for polished, conventionally structured prose. The translation and conceptual density can feel dense and unconventional.

About this book

In the 33rd century, Stephen Hawking, Albert Einstein, and Isaac Newton are resurrected using advanced technology that reverses engineers consciousness based on memorized creative works called selfies. They are tasked with attempting to resurrect Leonardo da Vinci, the greatest genius of all time. The novel explores cosmology, philosophy, art, medicine, and artificial intelligence through the lens of immortal, god-like beings who possess nearly omnipotent power yet retain human fears and dreams. The narrative incorporates historical and fictional figures—including Torquemada, Sitting Bull, Mark Antony, and Sherlock Holmes—existing simultaneously across different contexts and scenarios. This is Hir Dulo's first book translated into English. The author has achieved significant sales in his home country, with nearly 100,000 copies circulated in a population of 6 million.
