"For me the only workable fiction set in the future is that which describes realities. I would say there are three categories. There are Possibilities (Wells's fiction, for example); there are Probabilities (Jules Verne's); and to a lesser extent there are Certainties. I wanted to deal with certainties . . . The future cannot be very different from the present, but there will be more of what we see today, and it will be more distinct" (Paul Theroux).
