Constellations

If every possible future exists, then decisions we do and don’t make will determine which of these futures we actually end up experiencing. Imagine rolling a dice six thousand times. Roland knows a lot about honey. Marianne knows a lot about quantum cosmology. With little in common, the probability of them meeting is slim to none. Yet in a single moment the possibilities are infinite, inexplicable, and even miraculous. A touchingly original meditation on choice and destiny, Constellations is about the unfathomable multitude of ways two lives can intersect. In Nick Payne’s riveting fugue of vignettes, Marianne and Roland’s relationship unfolds across time and space—with each variation sending their story on an entirely new trajectory.
