The Humans

Author: Matt Haig

“The Humans” is a quirky, heartwarming tale that sneaks up on you. Haig’s alien protagonist, sent to Earth to prevent a mathematical breakthrough, finds himself bewildered by the complexities of human life. Through his eyes, we see our world anew – the absurdity of our customs, the beauty in our imperfections. As he navigates family dynamics and grapples with emotions, you’ll find yourself chuckling one moment and tearing up the next. It’s a poignant reminder of what it means to be human, wrapped in a delightfully offbeat package.

To be a human is to state the obvious. Repeatedly. Over and over, until the end of time.
