My favourite novel is Kurt Vonnegut’s The Sirens Of Titan. Aside from his use of humour to make compelling (and heart-breaking) statements about the ‘usefulness’ of life, I think Vonnegut’s genius here lies in the brevity he affords his really good ideas – of which there are a constellation.There’s a three-page aside in which he casually explains that Stonehenge was built by humans under the telepathic influence of a distant planet, just to send reassuring messages to a robot stranded in a broken ship on Mars; viewing Stonehenge from above, the robot reads the arranged shapes in his home planet’s language as ‘the parts are on their way’.
