THE THEORY OF GRAVITY ACCORDING TO CLOUDSIn 1802, Britain became obsessed with clouds—not just watching them, but classifying, debating, and conquering them. At the Askesian Society, eccentric scholars clash over balloons, machines, shadows, dirt, and even the proper gender of spoons, all racing to publish the first definitive, poetic, and logical system of cloud classification.Soon, amateur scientists, visionary fools, and even a bastard Danish prince are chasing the impossible. One worries about a vengeful crow; another invades the sky with a balloon, then the fog with a jar; yet another plots to pierce the clouds with a machine.A weirdly mythic and absurd Regency-era tale, THE THEORY OF GRAVITY ACCORDING TO CLOUDS is a comic novel where science, spectacle, and human folly collide in delightfully unpredictable ways. Fans of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, A Confederacy of Dunces, and Good Omens will find themselves in familiar, delightfully ridiculous territory, while discovering a story entirely its own.©2026 Jim Yoakum (P)2026 Jim Yoakum Absurdist Genre Fiction Literature & Fiction Satire
