di Ray Cummings (Autore)

Booker, 2025

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. The Princess of the Atom by Ray Cummings is a dazzling blend of early science fiction and romantic adventure that transports readers into a microscopic universe hidden within the fabric of the atom itself. Originally serialized in the early 20th century, this visionary tale follows the extraordinary journey of a scientist and his companions as they are miniaturized and descend into a subatomic realm teeming with intelligent life, strange cities, and political intrigue. At the heart of this miniature world stands the enigmatic and regal Princess of the Atom—a symbol of both beauty and power, ruling over a civilization shaped by forces far beyond human comprehension. As the protagonist navigates this surreal dimension, he is drawn into a conflict that mirrors human struggles of loyalty, ambition, and love, yet unfolds in a realm governed by exotic physics and shimmering energy. Cummings’ narrative is rich with imaginative detail and speculative wonder, combining romantic tension with the thrill of discovery. A pioneering work in the genre, The Princess of the Atom captures the optimism and awe of early speculative fiction, where science opens the door to entire new worlds, and even the smallest particle contains vast, untold mysteries. This is a tale of shrinking boundaries—both scientific and emotional—where courage and curiosity reign supreme.
