  My story is about a man in his seventies, a pseudo scientist who has his brain removed from his skull and placed inside a lab aquarium - the 'Manaquarium' so that they can study his consciousness. (FYI - They removed Einstein's brain but only checked out his basic anatomy and found that he had way more glial cells than the rest of us - what a waste.)  In this case, they get a bit further down the road.  Our hero, Henry has made it his life's goal to learn more about the connections of the human soul to the rest of the vastness of space/time.  Freed from the constraints of all of his biological functions, his mind is able to go where no man has gone before.   
  So - in the Think Tank and connected to the Super Lepton Collider, the upgraded Webb and Hubble Telescopes and the Very Large Array, Hank is able to discern something that appears to be the 2nd Big Bang! If you thought the first Big Bang was all there is, you have a huge shock in store for yourself.  As it turns out, they're going on all over the place and sometimes, they even collide into one another and cause havoc over large sections of the universe. 
  This is also a love story that connects the reader to the meaning and purpose of Cosmic Consciousness but in a completely new way - it's Science.    
  All of this plays out against the background of our planet on fire and all life on Earth on the verge of extinction - even the oceans catch fire - (taken from actual recent headlines.) But cruising closer to the 2nd Big Bang with the aid of Jeff Bezos and his new Space company - everything works out in the end and all of human life becomes justified at last - but in a slightly different and higher context than the way we justify ourselves at the present..   
  I don't want to give away the ending. I'm hopeful that I've done Arthur C. Clarke and Kurt Vonnegut proud.

  Steve has kept himself quite busy, being the only builder in the world... 
  It's a fact. No matter how hard he has tried in the past, the villagers never catch on. So resigned to being the only one with his incredible, if he does say so himself, skill, Steve has settled into retirement from being an adventurer and instead turned to building. 
  After all, he’s defeated the Ender Dragon, explored sunken ships, and even gone on a mad run through the Nether. There can’t be much left to do, can there? 
  Even if it is a little bit lonely, being the only builder in the world. 
  Before long, Steve notices strange happenings around the mighty fortress he calls home. Sheep being let from their pen, blocks where they shouldn’t be, chests missing all of their items. 
  Steve doesn’t remember building that staircase either, but it had to have been him! 
  Hadn’t it?
