His father, on the verge of tears, can only say one thing with his cracked voice, “I’m so proud of you, son.” Now, imagine the Charles Yu from How to Live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe as a young man, the same age as the soccer Charles Yu, sitting in a time machine, alone, talking to a computer program with no healthy human relationships.
