Description
Tom Hazard has lived for centuries. He's seen it all - from Elizabethan England to Jazz-Age Paris, and everywhere in between. But with this long life comes a secret: he can't fall in love. To stay alive, Tom keeps changing his identity, always staying one step ahead of his past. As a 41-year-old history teacher, Tom appears ordinary, but beneath the surface lies a complex web of experiences and memories. This is a story about learning to live with the weight of your years, and finding a way to make the most of every moment. Matt Haig's novel explores what it means to be human in a world where time is both a gift and a curse. With wit, wisdom, and a deep understanding of the human condition, Tom Hazard's story will resonate with anyone who has ever felt like they're living on borrowed time.
