Matt Haig
Body-snatching has never been so heartwarming . . .,The Humans, is a funny, compulsively readable novel about alien abduction, mathematics, and that most interesting subject of all: ourselves. Combine Douglas Adamsâ€™s irreverent take on life, the universe, and everything with a genuinely moving love story, and you have some idea of the humor, originality, and poignancy of Matt Haigâ€™s latest novel.,Our hero, Professor Andrew Martin, is dead before the book even begins. As it turns out, though, he wasnâ€™t a very nice man--as the alien imposter who now occupies his body discovers. Sent to Earth to destroy evidence that Andrew had solved a major mathematical problem, the alien soon finds himself learning more about the professor, his family, and â€œthe humansâ€ than he ever expected. When he begins to fall for his own wife and son--who have no idea heâ€™s not the real Andrew--the alien must choose between completing his mission and returning home or finding a new home right here on Earth.
