Jennifer Spence on slipping back into your own past


Listen Later

If given the chance, would you adjust the past to avoid a terrible tragedy in the future? And if you went back in time 20 years and tracked down a younger version of yourself, what kind of person would you find?These questions are central to Jennifer Spence's new novel, The Lost Girls. Stella slips back in time to 1997 and must disguise herself in the past, resist changing her family's fate, and attempt to get back to the present.We spoke to the author about time travel, the innocence of 1997, and gleaning writing advice from a famous parable.
