Sea of Tranquility

Holy crap I was so mindblown and got a little emotional for some reason. The story follows different characters in different times, but eventually all events intertwine with one another. Mandel does an amazing job at setting the tone and atmosphere for each one. This one was interesting in the way that the chapters were written, how the story flowed, and various ways of delivering the story (e.g. interviews that occurred through the whole book. The main theme and idea that struck me most were Gaspery's attempts to change other people's lives for the better and even telling his younger self at the interview of what happened and kind of reflecting on his own life it really just.. hit hard. Like if you were able to meet a younger version of yourself that still didn't know a lot, what would you tell them? I applaud Gaspery's thoughtfulness and ethics in a way, despite it going against the Time Institute and his colleagues.
