Your place in the Universe…

To mark the release of Christopher Potter’s critically acclaimed pop-science novel You Are Here, we have created this great animation that shows your place in the universe - from the tiniest quarks and electrons to the vastness of outer space. Simply head on over to Bookhugger and start your journey!

You Are Here is out now. Read Christopher Potter’s guest blog on what inspired him to write it here. If you would like to host the animation on your website, please email me at windmill(at)randomhouse.co.uk.

Reviews:

‘Funny, poignant, interesting and charming. This is how life should be lived, (apart from where he nearly dies)’ - John O’Farrell

‘All the qualities which make Arthur Smith such a success on the stage are here… by drawing out the comedy in humdrum reality he keeps one constantly smiling’ - The Scotsman

‘The loveable old codger rolls out his memoirs, full of so-barking-they-must-be-true stories of his youth and stand-up career’ - Metro

‘Witty, self-aware and poignant’ - The Observer

‘It radiates a glow of whimsy and invention’ - Independent on Sunday

My Name is Daphne Fairfax is a witty inside track on life’s bigger themes: the mirage of fame, boredome, depression and death’ - The Times
