Horsesense Hank in the parallel worlds
The narrative centers on Hank Cleaver, a plain-spoken rural man whose practical intuition has landed him a place among government and university scientists. Challenging a colleague's claim that history is fixed, he sets out to build a time-travel device and journeys into an earlier era to test whether altering past events can change the present. The story blends homespun humor and speculative invention while examining causality, the tension between common-sense reasoning and formal theory, and the ethical questions raised by attempting to reshape historical outcomes.
