Amazon Best Sellers Rank:

A beautiful and moving novel, and an early contender for the best book of 2019. Chess brilliantly captures the inconsolable feeling of loss that suffuses the soul of any immigrant or refugee, with the twist here that the home that’s been lost forever is a parallel timeline in an alternate universe. A deeply emotional journey akin to “Station Eleven”, and a superb lens through which the everyday world is abruptly made foreign and wrong.

I've long believed that science-fiction, as a genre, is well-suited to reflecting the very real frustrations, concerns, and joys of our own lives, and this book serves as another piece of evidence for me. Unique and compelling, Chess' writing manages to convey the universal sensations of grief, of isolation, of otherness in an insightful, moving way. Hel, the protagonist, is just unlikable enough to be believable (What kind of monster doesn't tip?!), but I still found myself rooting for her to get her sh@! together and succeed. I found myself wanting to know more about the world Hel came from, and wishing there was a museum like the one she wants to create in our world so that I could visit it.

Beautiful writing and so much heart! I found it a bit hard to get into the first time, because I didn't much like Hel. But the further I read, the more I related to her. I realize now that were I in her shoes, I'd behave exactly as badly; probably worse! I love the parts that contrast the two New Yorks, the scenes set in Dwayne's grandma's house, and Hel's memories of her son. Let the empathy of this book inspire us to look at refugees with new eyes, and increased action!

I've read a lot of fiction about parallel universes. The concept fascinates me. This novel is now very high on my list of favorites.The basic story---in or around 1909, the world split. In close to the present time, the world that is not our timeline is in shambles from war. A gateway opens, and by lottery, around 150,000 people move to our own timeline. The book, in amazingly detailed and carefully drawn writing, tells of the lives of those living in a reality subtly different than their own.Much of the book concerns Helen and Vikram, a couple that went through the gateway, as they find their way in the new to them world. There is discrimination against the "aliens", as their kind is called, and there are the many big and little differences between the worlds to navigate. Other characters get briefly highlighted also. One of these is a man who has a swastika tattoo---in his old reality, a peaceful symbol, another is a criminal whose crime paints all aliens in a bad light, and those and other stories add to the fullness of the writing.An overriding theme is the power of art. In the alternate world, an author named Ezra Sleight is hugely beloved. In our world, he died as a young boy. Vikram brought his most famous novel with him, and it becomes missing. In our world of overwhelming amounts of information, it was very interesting to consider the value of something like the novel that exists only in a single delicate physical form, and how we might value literature and art differently if that were the case in our own world.A highly recommended read.

I found it challenging to suspend my own disbelief in order to get into the story. I am not generally a fan of the genre. But K Chess writes so well, I found myself caring about some of the characters, and, well, I finished reading the book. Now that I know I liked it, I will have to read it again.

Haven’t read the book just yet but, I’m only reviewing because this is my sister in laws debut book. Lil bro is proud of you sis :)

Famous Men Who Never Lived is a moving and deeply enlightening thought experiment. It is beautifully written-even lyrical-and a thoroughly rewarding read.

Imagine you’re living your life in New York City when word comes that bomb attacks will soon bring killing levels of radiation. But there is a gateway from your New York into a parallel universe’s New York and you are one of the people chosen to step through with as much as you can carry. About 150,000 people manage to make their escape, and our main characters, Helen (usually called Hel) and Vikram are among them.Normally in time/dimension travel novels the person doing the moving tries to blend in and not reveal that he’s from another dimension. But in this book, everyone knows what’s happened, which provides a lot of possibilities for the story.The new arrivals are called UDPs (Universe Displaced Persons) or, more pejoratively, aliens. They are objects of fascination for some, but once the novelty of their arrival has worn off, more people are indifferent to them or have negative feelings about them. That’s difficult for the UDPs, but more so is the adjustment from their world (called the Before) to the new one. It seems that the two New Yorks split somewhere around 1910, which means that despite their initial sameness, there are many differences, large and small, between their histories and development. The UDPs receive intensive orientation, but they can’t just drop their memories of the Before, and the people and things they’ve lost causes great sorrow and pain.Vikram’s favorite author from the Before is a man named Sleight, and Vikram has brought one of Sleight’s novels, The Pyronauts, with him through the gateway. In the new world, Sleight died as a child, and his books were never written. A desire not to fully assimilate, but instead to keep the Before culture alive, spurs Hel’s ambition to create a UDP museum. At the same time, she has the notion that there is something about Sleight that caused the rift between the two New Yorks, and she and Vikram hope to find out what that is.I was immediately drawn in by the book’s premise, and Chess’s point of view about dimensional travelers. I felt the UDPs’ yearning, loss and displacement. And, of course, the position of the UDPs and how they’re treated has parallels to today’s immigrants. We see intriguing glimpses of the Before world, like neighborhoods that have different names and characters, usually because of the different placement and modes of transport. Twentieth-century history played out differently, which leads to some strong differences in the socio-cultural outlooks of the UDPs and the New Yorkers of their new home.But after setting all this up, it felt to me as if Chess couldn’t unify her theme and she tried to do too much. The storyline is choppy because of having not just Hel and Vikram driving it, but also because Chess intersperses first-person narratives by other UDPs, as well as excerpts from The Pyronauts, all on top of references back to the Before and a bit of a mystery plot involving that copy of The Pyronauts. I didn’t feel that the other narratives or the excerpts from The Pyronauts added much to the story, and those parts took attention away from Hel and Vikram, who could have used more pages to flesh out their characters and better engage emotionally with the reader. The mystery plot could have been interesting, but it was way in the background for much of the book, only to come back briefly at the end of the book, at which point I was tired of the slog and didn’t much care anymore.This is a book that had great potential but ended up being all over the place.
