Authors, such as Alan Lightman (Einstein's Dreams) and Jonathan Lethem (As She Climbed Across the Table), successfully incorporate scientific concepts into literary fiction. Students review and discuss excerpts from relevant pieces of fiction then workshop their own stories and novel chapters in which science plays a major role. Exercises teach students to seamlessly incorporate complex scientific ideas and information into fiction writing.
