Book Club: The Three-Body Problem by Liu Cixin

Details

This month we're reading "The Three-Body Problem” by Liu Cixin. This science fiction novel (now adapted as a TV series) was originally translated from Chinese, so we'll discuss it over... you guessed it, Chinese food.

Here's a summary:

Set against the backdrop of China's Cultural Revolution, a secret military project sends signals into space to establish contact with aliens. An alien civilization on the brink of destruction captures the signal and plans to invade Earth. Meanwhile, on Earth, different camps start forming, planning to either welcome the superior beings and help them take over a world seen as corrupt, or to fight against the invasion.
