"Sometimes we can care more about fiction than we can about fact," Byrne said of how the sci-fi series can be seen in this tumultuous political time. Byrne sees parallels between the original story and this modern day take. "In some ways the world is unrecognizable, but what the book does brilliantly and the series does it too, is that it provokes bigger questions about what it means to be alive, what keeps humans going in the face of despair," he said, adding that humanity is facing a slow burn environmental disaster but doing little about it. Byrne blames information overload.
