A recently established government ministry is gathering \u201cexpats\u201d from across history to establish whether time travel is feasible\u2014for the body, but also for the fabric of space-time.<\/p>\n<p> She is tasked with working as a \u201cbridge\u201d: living with, assisting, and monitoring the expat known as \u201c1847\u201d or Commander Graham Gore. As far as history is concerned, Commander Gore died on Sir John Franklin\u2019s doomed 1845 expedition to the Arctic, so he\u2019s a little disoriented to be living with an unmarried woman who regularly shows her calves, surrounded by outlandish concepts such as \u201cwashing machines,\u201d \u201cSpotify,\u201d and \u201cthe collapse of the British Empire.\u201d But with an appetite for discovery, a seven-a-day cigarette habit, and the support of a charming and chaotic cast of fellow expats, he soon adjusts.<\/p>\n<p> Over the next year, what the bridge initially thought would be, at best, a horrifically uncomfortable roommate dynamic, evolves into something much deeper. By the time the true shape of the Ministry\u2019s project comes to light, the bridge has fallen haphazardly, fervently in love, with consequences she never could have imagined. Forced to confront the choices that brought them together, the bridge must finally reckon with how\u2014and whether she believes\u2014what she does next can change the future.<\/p>\n<p> An exquisitely original and feverishly fun fusion of genres and ideas, The Ministry of Time asks: What does it mean to defy history, when history is living in your house? Kaliane Bradley\u2019s answer is a blazing, unforgettable testament to what we owe each other in a changing world.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER A GOOD MORNING AMERICA BOOK CLUB PICK \u201cThis summer\u2019s hottest debut.\u201d \u2014Cosmopolitan \u201cWitty, sexy escapist fiction [that] packs a substantial punch&#8230;Fresh and thrilling.\u201d \u2014Los Angeles Times \u201cElectric&#8230;I loved every second.\u201d \u2014Emily Henry \u201cUtterly winning&#8230;Imagine if The Time Traveler\u2019s Wife had an affair with A Gentleman in [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":70791,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/815cmu+fEGL._SL1500_.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[102],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-70790","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-self-help"},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/815cmu+fEGL._SL1500_.jpg?w=1500&fit=1500,1500&ssl=1","uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/815cmu+fEGL._SL1500_.jpg?w=1500&fit=1500,1500&ssl=1",1500,1500,true],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/815cmu+fEGL._SL1500_.jpg?w=150&resize=150,150&ssl=1",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/815cmu+fEGL._SL1500_.jpg?w=300&fit=300,300&ssl=1",300,300,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/815cmu+fEGL._SL1500_.jpg?w=768&resize=768,0&ssl=1",768,0,true],"large":["https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/815cmu+fEGL._SL1500_.jpg?w=1024&fit=1024,1024&ssl=1",1024,1024,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/815cmu+fEGL._SL1500_.jpg?w=1536&fit=1536,1536&ssl=1",1536,1536,true],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/815cmu+fEGL._SL1500_.jpg?w=2048&fit=2048,2048&ssl=1",2048,2048,true],"td_0x420":["https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/815cmu+fEGL._SL1500_.jpg?w=0&resize=0,420&ssl=1",0,420,true],"td_80x60":["https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/815cmu+fEGL._SL1500_.jpg?w=80&resize=80,60&ssl=1",80,60,true],"td_150x0":["https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/815cmu+fEGL._SL1500_.jpg?w=150&resize=150,0&ssl=1",150,0,true],"td_218x150":["https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/815cmu+fEGL._SL1500_.jpg?w=218&resize=218,150&ssl=1",218,150,true],"td_300x0":["https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/815cmu+fEGL._SL1500_.jpg?w=300&resize=300,0&ssl=1",300,0,true],"td_324x400":["https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/815cmu+fEGL._SL1500_.jpg?w=324&resize=324,400&ssl=1",324,400,true],"td_485x360":["https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/815cmu+fEGL._SL1500_.jpg?w=485&resize=485,360&ssl=1",485,360,true],"td_696x0":["https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/815cmu+fEGL._SL1500_.jpg?w=696&resize=696,0&ssl=1",696,0,true],"td_1068x0":["https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/815cmu+fEGL._SL1500_.jpg?w=1068&resize=1068,0&ssl=1",1068,0,true],"td_1920x0":["https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/815cmu+fEGL._SL1500_.jpg?w=1920&resize=1920,0&ssl=1",1920,0,true],"woocommerce_thumbnail":["https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/815cmu+fEGL._SL1500_.jpg?w=300&resize=300,300&ssl=1",300,300,true],"woocommerce_single":["https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/815cmu+fEGL._SL1500_.jpg?w=600&resize=600,0&ssl=1",600,0,true],"woocommerce_gallery_thumbnail":["https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/815cmu+fEGL._SL1500_.jpg?w=100&resize=100,100&ssl=1",100,100,true]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"Musadiq hussain","author_link":"https:\/\/studentsclub.org\/homepage\/author\/musadiqhussain1306gmail-com\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":"Price: (as of &#8211;
