See allAnother fabulous time travel book. This one takes place in the future (after time travel has been perfected), and at the onset of the Plague in England. A history student ends up in the wrong time, and then can't get back to her present.
OMG - this is a memoir, and it is a hair-raising tale. How the children in her family survived, we will never figure out.
This was required reading in a writing class at the local community college. I thought it was a great selection of stories.
It is rare that I give a book five stars, but this is a rare book. The characters feel so authentic, the language is so lyrical, the story is outstanding. What I wouldn't give to write a book of this quality.
This book illustrates that one person really can make a difference. His descriptions of the villages of the Himalayas helped me understand what was happening in Afghanistan and Iraq.
