A new novel by Utah-based author Robert Adamson is set on Kaua‘i.
The book, “Rainhut,” delves into both Hindu and Buddhist theology and far-reaching cosmic questions such as Fermi’s Paradox, which illustrates the contradiction between the likelihood of extraterrestrial civilizations and the lack of evidence to support their existence.
The book uses science fiction as a medium to communicate its theories of existentialism. Adamson drew inspiration from Ralph Waldo Emerson’s poem “Maya,” which is the result of Emerson’s exploration of the Bhagavad-Gita. He also was inspired by his own love of science fiction.
A challenging novel that deals with physics, technology, religion and outer space, “Rainhut” raises questions about reality and causes speculation about its alternative possibilities.
A software engineer and the founder of several software companies, Adamson wrote his first short story about time travel while working on his computer science degree at the University of Utah. Combined with his love of mountain biking and outdoor exploration, he has crafted his first novel, “Rainhut.” When not traveling, he lives in Utah with his wife.
