A wallet stolen in a hotel bathroom. Gold flakes stirred into morning coffee. A PowerPoint presentation that captures a family's essence. In Jennifer Egan's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, these seemingly disconnected moments form an intricate web of human experience spanning decades. Time-what one character calls "the goon squad"-is the true protagonist, transforming rebellious teenagers into nostalgic adults and punk rockers into corporate executives. The novel's brilliance lies in its kaleidoscopic structure, shifting perspectives across characters whose lives intersect in unexpected ways. Rather than following a traditional narrative arc, we witness fragments of lives that gradually coalesce into a profound meditation on how we change-and how we remain fundamentally the same-as years pass. Like memory itself, the story unfolds non-chronologically, revealing how past experiences shape present identities in ways both subtle and dramatic. What happens between point A and point B in a life? And can we ever truly understand the transformation?
