2007 books

3) Zoran Živković, Time-Gifts, 1997
Four concise, well-told episodes about how time travel resolved three personal dilemmas, the fourth tale revealing the identity of the person who possesses the ability to send others back in time. A book that needs to step outside itself in order to explain itself; this is a risky literary device but is also one that Živković pulls off with panache. A very good read, and I like Živković's solid, reliable style.

Three books down and we're only on the seventh day of the first month. How on earth do you find the time? :)

These were short books, but I'd love Time Gifts to have been longer.
