Books like Version control by Dexter Clarence Palmer


After a personal tragedy, Rebecca, an employee at an online dating company, struggles with grief and a nagging sense that the world is off‑balance. She’s married to Philip, a theorist whose decades of work on a causality‑violation device has stalled his career and embarrassed him among peers. Even as Philip pushes toward a breakthrough that could alter reality itself, Rebecca’s night‑time visions and unsettling daydreams suggest that their lives—and perhaps the very fabric of existence—are already changing. The story follows their intimate journey through loss, irrational perceptions, and the scientific pursuit of a device that promises to rewrite causality, exploring how personal relationships grapple with the uncertainty of undermining conventional reality.
