The novel Galápagos by Kurt Vonnegut looks back at 1986 from the future through a series of twentieth-century catastrophes which had originated entirely in "large" human brains.It is a humorous take on how humanity evolved through its encounter with “the nature cruise of the century”. A Who's Who pasenger list included Jackie Onassis and Mick Jagger, but financial crisis and world hunger caused mass cancellations. Little did the remaining passengers aboard the "Bahía de Darwin" realize that they would become the Noah's Ark of future civilizations.
Not necessarily a science fiction fan, I still enjoyed this extremely creative satirical work of fiction.
