The Humans
by Matt Haig

When an extra-terrestrial visitor takes the form of a prominent mathematician at Cambridge University, he is eager to complete the gruesome task he's been assigned and hurry home to his own utopian planet.  But in his disguise as a human, he drinks wine, reads poetry, develops an ear for rock music and a taste for peanut butter, and slowly, unexpectedly, forges personal bonds with the natives of this planet, finding hope and beauty in human imperfections.
