Time Shelter is a very specific kind of eerie you feel when you dream about things that could actually happen. The concept is really cool, but the wiring is DRY.

very strange book. it kinda borders on science fiction and magical realism. it lost me somewhere in the middle where it gets really dark and political, but overall it’s a VERY interesting and bizarre read. so many great quotes too. gospodinov’s historical knowledge is impressive like i’ve learned more about history via this novel than school.
