Where would you like to have a second home?

Anyone who knows what an autobiography is, may be confused by the title of this book that comes after the colon.   

The Milky Way: An Autobiography of Our Galaxy  

—by Moiya McTier

   

McTier didn’t actually interview, then ghostwrite, an autobiography of the massive galaxy we inhabit.  She did write from the galaxy’s first-person point of view, though.  McTier studied both astronomy and mythology at Harvard before getting her PhD in astrophysics at Columbia University.  Smarty-pants!  She smoothly combined her love of the cosmos and fascination with folklore into a unique perspective of the history and future of our home galaxy.  Along the way she established a hero, villain, and love interest to drive the narrative.  The Milky Way is the hero of its own story, of course.  The Milky Way’s supermassive black hole, Sagittarius A* (pronounced “A-star”), is a villainous A**hole (see what I did there?!).  And our nearest large galaxy, Andromeda—which will collide with the Milky Way in 4 billion(ish) years—will not destroy us, but instead be the long-awaited embrace of two destined lovers.  Four billion years of solitude!  Seems like a great place for a second home.
