    About this ebook

    From Switzerland to Spain to a remote island in the South Pacific that straddles the International Date Line, Dale is being chased all around the world--or at least he thinks he is. His pursuer, a creature called Hieroglyphus, is trying to control the space-time continuum by means of something called the Ideal Clock. There's just one problem: at any given moment Dale can never be sure where--or who--Hieroglyphus is. This short story by Sean Munger, author of "Life Without Giamotti," explores the boundaries of human conceptions of time, and why time may not always be as straightforward as it seems.

      Obie Oberholzer: “The sound of the gunshots was deafening. Deadly thuds of bullets smashing into Ouma Roos Cloete's head, a ricocheting madness of cordite, flying glass from smashed booze bottles, a downpour of brandy, vodka and whisky. I was awakene

      IN the small hours of the night, when the roads are silent and empty, a car careens down a village street. The driver’s face is dimly lit by the map light, which shines behind the windscreen. Under the single village streetlight, he pulls over, kills

      Nobody died that year. Nobody prospered. There were no births or marriages. Seventeen reverent satires were written – disrupting a cliché and, presumably, creating a genre. That was a dream, of course, but many of the most important things, I fi nd,
