Nerdy magazine Wired’s US edition features a special on time travel this month. One article examines Haruki Murakami’s novel 1Q84 which was just released in the English translation. Murakami creates a “bizarro version” of 1984 and Wired compares it to the real 1984 as it happened.
Moreover, there’s an interview with Stephen King about his latest novel 11/22/63 in which he sends his hero, Jake Epping, back in time to prevent JFK’s assassination. A short article about H.G. Wells’ first time machine explains where the idea of time travel and it’s fascination for writers came from.
