Time Shelter by Georgi Gospodinov

Nostalgia just ain’t what it used to be. 
This Booker International winner (2023) looks at how reflecting on the past and even escaping into it can be soothing. 
As we’re lulled into a sense of security (yes, we’re the readers are sucked in too) we are reminded that one persons sorting past is another’s trauma. 
Which past would you choose? Would your bestie make the same choice?
