Fiction by Edan Lipinksi
This was a strange book. I suppose it should have been obvious from the weird title that it would be.
The book begins with an odd monolguey introduction by Time personified, but the story is about a woman called Ursa, beginning a little after 1950. Ursa has a gift for time travel, but only in a very limited way. This gift (or curse) is a major plot point but doesn't actually influence the narrative line. Therefore it doesn't really pull the novel all the way into fantasy, in my opinion. I decided to classify it as weird historical fiction instead.
Really it's more of a character story, about Ursa and the lives she influences, for better or worse. (Mostly worse.) It was a good story with an ending I didn't expect.
