Transfixing ... A thoughtful, character-based reckoning with time and fate, destiny and free will ... While at times the novel reads like a thriller, and a coming-of-age story, every page is imbued with complex questions and even more complex answers.
A mind-bending take on time travel ... A slow-boiling philosophical thriller when Odile reaches adulthood ... The novel’s lasting impression is not its ideas, but the rich landscape. Howard has a naturalist’s gift for the pastoral.
Stunning ... Howard’s singularly beautiful and wholly original coming-of-age story will capture the minds of his readers ... A thought-provoking exploration of ethics, power, love, and time travel.
