After furious American English Literature Professor Brooke Bennison finds out her Romantic Poets bus tour of England has been redirected and will no longer be stopping in Oxford after a vote took place while she was out hiking, she stumbles across a portal in time near Tintern Abbey. She is abruptly thrown from the 1980s to the 2070s, and inside Oxford University's Time Travel lab.
What's worse - apparently she's broken the laws of time to do so. No-one can go forwards in time.
Paired up with experienced travelling historian Arthur, he attempts to overcome the malfunction which brought her there, desperate to avoid paradoxes and damage to the space-time continuum. This is not made easier by Brooke, who is nothing if not determined to make the most of the tourist opportunities afforded to her.
Spiritually and tonally paired with TO SAY NOTHING OF THE DOG, this brand new entry into the Oxford Time Travel series is a love letter to English Literature, and an apology to temporal physics.
