About this book

Charles Yu repairs time machines for a living in a city where past and present overlap like mismatched shirts. He’s searching for his missing father, a tinkerer who may have invented a device that traps people inside their own memories. Armed with a user’s manual, a melancholy sense of humor, and a dog that may or may not exist, Charles slips through loops and footnotes to confront what we rewrite and what we keep. Inventive, poignant, and surprisingly tender, this time-travel story doubles as a meditation on family, regret, and the algorithms of hope—crafted for readers who like brainy feelings and gentle wit.
