Michelangelo Fazio, autore di tre racconti di fantascienza, capace di coniugare divulgazione scientifica e racconto, introduce il lettore nel mondo delle leggi dello spazio-tempo e della relatività di Einstein. La comicità di Fazio e la sua passione per la scienza trovano collocazione ideale in queste storie brevi ambientate in mondi fantastici.
