Quantum Voices is a satire of contemporary culture that has a laugh out loud moment on almost every page. The narrator, a teacher who "has been made redundant some months ago," encounters a woman in London "whose face is exceedingly beautiful and age . . . indistinguishable". Her name is Madame Sosostris and she invites the narrator for tea at her flat. The narrator then meets the others who live in the home of Madame Sosostris; each of them tells a story that intertwines with other stories from the narrator's life.
All of these narratives run parallel to the story of Marcel, who becomes the thread that unites all the diverse elements of the book. Quantum Voices looks at the "deeper" questions in a humorous way; it takes readers on a fantastic journey that inspires them to laugh, to learn, and to think.
