Summary
It's 1962, and physics student Grace Pulansky believes she has met the man of her dreams, Robert Jones, while serving up slices of pecan pie at the local diner. But then the FBI shows up, with their fedoras and off-the-rack business suits, and accuses him of being a bomb-planting mass-murderer.
Finding herself on the run with Jones across America's Southwest, the discoveries awaiting Gracie will undermine everything she knows about the universe. Her story will reveal how scores of lives—an identity-swapping rock star, a mourning lover in ancient China, Nazi hunters in pursuit of a terrible secret, a crazed artist in pre-revolutionary France, an astronaut struggling with a turbulent interplanetary future, and many more—are interconnected across space and time by love, grief, and quantum entanglement.
Spanning continents, centuries, and dimensions, this exquisitely crafted and madly inventive novel—a triple-disk, concept-album of an audiobook—is a profound yet propulsive enquiry into the nature of reality—the perfect immersive listen for fans of David Mitchell, Emily St. John Mandel, Neil Gaiman and Margaret Atwood.

Clever idea, but overly long
Though the book really is 100 pages too long and misses the mark a little on the pacing, it’s a clever and entertaining read from start to finish. Don’t expect a thriller though, as it never really manages to be fast-paced enough. The narrator is excellent and manages all the different characters and timelines without a hitch.

Classic time puzzle weaved out of sequance
Character driven chapters which inevitably mesh to give a satisfying finale. All of history is here.
