The Girl Who Leapt Through Time - Thryft

Time-travel mystery with a compelling teenage protagonist.

If you're captivated by the fusion of science fiction with the stirrings of first love, "The Girl Who Leapt Through Time" might just be the literary adventure waiting for you. Tsutsui's classic tale pulls you into a whimsical journey that is as much about the elasticity of time as it is about the enduring nature of human connection. The novel's appeal extends beyond its genre, offering a contemplative look at the choices we make and their ripple effects on our reality.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

One of Tsutsui's best-known and most popular works in his native Japan, The Girl Who Leapt through Time is the story of fifteen-year-old schoolgirl Kazuko, who accidentally discovers that she can leap back and forth in time. In her quest to uncover the identity of the mysterious figure that she believes to be responsible for her paranormal abilities, she'll have to push the boundaries of space and time, and challenge the notions of dream and reality.After the success of Paprika, Hell, The Maid and Salmonella Men on Planet Porno, this is the fifth work by one of the greatest and most acclaimed living Japanese writers to be translated into English, displaying all the author's dry humour and relish for the absurd.
