Reviews
"In The Lightest Object in the Universe , author Kimi Eisele explores how humanity would have to evolve, relying on hope and love to ultimately sustain humankind." --The Associated Press "Clear-eyed and tender . . . an enlightening, though never precious perspective on what it means to rebuild something, rather than just wallow in destruction. It''s a story of hope, resilience, and being human." --Nylon "It''s Sleepless In Seattle meets Station Eleven . . . the leisurely chapters are full of beauty, the characters are layered and nuanced, and the plot still moves at a faster clip than Charles Frazier''s Cold Mountain , another Odyssean novel about lovers separated by harsh geography. To be fair, there are plenty of horrors in Eisele''s version of the apocalypse . . . But unlike The Road , The Lightest Object is mostly interested in the survivors who are kind to one another. If that sounds naïve, maybe Cormac McCarthy made us all too cynical." --The A.V. Club "A near-future apocalypse forms the backdrop for an intense, moving romance in Eisele''s smart debut . . . Fans of Station Eleve n will particularly enjoy this hopeful vision of a postapocalyptic world where there is danger, but also the possibility for ideas to spread, community to blossom, and people to not just survive, but thrive." -- Publishers Weekly "This is Charles Frazier''s Cold Mountain crossed with Emily St. John Mandel''s Station Eleven . Filled with luminous writing and messages of love and hope, this story will motivate everyone to sharpen their ham radio skills." -- Library Journal "A compellingly realistic depiction of the world after the collapse of civilization, although at its heart, it is a love story told in the vein of Cold Mountain . . . The Lightest Object in the Universe is an intriguing and engrossing debut novel that will leave readers thinking about their own ability to survive, their own capacity for love, and their willingness to face catastrophe with hope." -- New York Journal of Books "Kimi Eisele''s first novel is a love story set in a landscape where everything (government, history, infrastructure) has collapsed--except our need for one another and the struggle to persevere. In such a world, love may be on the run, but it can still be a transforming force. What''s required is a kind of faith: in ourselves, in one another, in a future that is no more or less uncertain than it has always been. The experience of humanity, in other words, which Eisele brings to every page of this deeply moving narrative." -- David L. Ulin, author of Sidewalking: Coming to Terms with Los Angeles "It might be an oxymoron to call an apocalyptic novel hopeful, but The Lightest Object in the Universe is a testament to the power of love in the darkest times. Like a near-future Cold Mountain , it''s the story of a man''s epic journey to reunite with the woman he loves, and a woman''s determination to reimagine and rebuild after the fall. There''s horror, yes, but more moments of ingenuity, generosity, and grace. I couldn''t put it down." -- Sheri Holman, author of Witches on the Road Tonight "A tale told in sentences starkly declarative of the gone world they describe, The Lightest Object in the Universe offers characters that linger long after the final page is turned. This is a novel with that exact balance of heart and momentum. Dazzling." -- Christian Kiefer, author of The Animals "Post-apocalyptic stories are all the rage, but Kimi Eisele''s novel is a rarity. Her people don''t merely wander across a blighted wasteland; they form communities, till the soil, send their voices into the ether, and cling tenaciously to hope. The Lightest Object in the Universe is a triumphant story for anyone with a shred of faith left in the human spirit." -- David McGlynn, author of One Day You''ll Thank Me, "A near-future apocalypse forms the backdrop for an intense, moving romance in Eisele's smart debut . . . Fans of Station Eleve n will particularly enjoy this hopeful vision of a postapocalyptic world where there is danger, but also the possibility for ideas to spread, community to blossom, and people to not just survive, but thrive." -- Publishers Weekly "This is Charles Frazier's Cold Mountain crossed with Emily St. John Mandel's Station Eleven .

More than just standard techno-challenged-humanity-rendered-atavistic fare, this is a love story. More accurately, the quest for love and its potential in a world demanding to be rebuilt." --The Millions "Clear-eyed and tender . . . an enlightening, though never precious perspective on what it means to rebuild something, rather than just wallow in destruction.
