Critics Review
A thrilling tale of time travel and alternate timelines with a refreshingly optimistic view of humanity’s future
All Our Wrong Todays is an entertaining romp that should appeal to fans The Time Traveler’s Wife – Best recent science fiction * The Guardian *
Sharp, funny writing in a mind-bending, time-travelling junket of a novel * Daily Mail *
A mind-bending time travel caper * Guardian *
Elan Mastai manages the [time-travel] genre masterfully in his debut novel – Olivia Ovenden * Esquire *
A thrilling tale of time travel and alternate timelines with a refreshingly optimistic view of humanity’s future – Andy Weir, author of international bestseller * The Martian *
A novel about time travel has no right to be this engaging.
A novel this engaging has no right to be this smart.
And a novel this smart has no right to be this funny. Or insightful. Or immersive.
Basically, this novel has no right to exist.”
Elan Mastai has conjured up a witty and freewheeling time-traveling romance that packs an emotional wallop. All Our Wrong Todays is a page-turning delight – Maria Semple, author of * Where’d You Go, Bernadette *
All Our Wrong Todays is elaborately constructed and incredibly emotionally intelligent; it’s a story with super high stakes that genuinely makes you feel every part of Tom’s awful predicament * SciFiNow *
Witty, original, funny, charming - a great story!
* Joe Haddow, BBC Radio 2 Book Club *It’s all very clever, but it’s also not really the point. Because as well as being an intelligent sci-fi story, it’s also a love story, and kind of a monomyth, and also just an incredibly relatable, insightful story about being in your 30s, feeling like you haven’t achieved anything, and figuring out what’s next * SciFiNow UK *
