Book Discussion Group: The Ministry of Time by Kaliane Bradley
Event box
This event will be held off-site at Aurelio's Pizza 1445 W. Lake St. Addison, IL
In near-future Britain, a narrator known as “the bridge” takes a well-paying government job, only to find herself at the center of a top-secret project. Hired by a new ministry experimenting with time travel, she is assigned to be a monitor and guide for Commander Graham Gore, a nineteenth-century naval officer pulled from the doomed Franklin Expedition. Living together in London, they participate in exercises with other “expats” to help them adjust to the present while being watched for signs of physical or mental deterioration. But as the bridge grows closer to Gore, it becomes clear that not everything is as it seems—and the government isn’t protecting everyone.
