Inverted World

Inverted World is a science fiction novel by Christopher Priest, exploring themes of perception and reality. The story is set in a city that constantly changes conditions, where the inhabitants must adapt to survive. The world is "inverted" in the sense that normal rules of physics and time do not apply as they do in our reality. This unique setting challenges characters to question their understanding of existence and the nature of their society. Through its narrative, the novel delves into concepts of stability, change, and the complexities of human experience in a shifting environment.
