Biography:
Ice Fisherman is a significant character in Charles Yu's novel, How to Live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe. He is the narrator's, Charles Yu's, father, a theoretical physicist.
Dr. Yu is obsessed with inventing a time machine that will allow him to return to 1979 and spend more time with his own father, who died when Dr. Yu was young. This singular focus consumes his life and prevents him from fully engaging with his family in the present.
He becomes increasingly detached and spends much of his time in simulated realities, specifically a simulation of himself ice fishing. This isolation contributes to the breakdown of his relationship with his wife and son.
Ice Fisherman embodies the themes of regret, the allure of the past, and the difficulties of navigating familial relationships amidst personal obsessions. His absence, both physical and emotional, profoundly impacts Charles Yu's life and drives much of the novel's narrative.
