The Silver Wind: Four Stories of Time Disrupted by Nina Allan

5.0

Very little is explained and the reader is left to guess most of it for herself. I liked how the same names were used across several different stories, leading to litre moments where you remember a piece of trivia that was mentioned before about a character, but you’re not quite sure if it’s this character or another version from a separate short story in the book with the same name. This seems to mimic the mild state of confusion that Owen Andrews spoke of when crossing between realities.

The ending is left ambiguous (like most of the book is) and I kind of wish there was an explanation out there for how the different timelines criss cross and intersect and how the Dora Newland in the last story is related to Owen Andrews and the significance of Helen Bostall.
