Riassunto:
Volte sembra che tu possa allungare la mano e toccare il passato. Un vecchio che indossa una tunica marrone viene trovato a vagare disorientato nel deserto dell'Arizona. È a chilometri di distanza da qualsiasi abitazione umana e non ha memoria di come sia arrivato lì, o di chi sia. L'unico indizio sulla sua identità è la pianta di un monastero medievale nella sua tasca. In Francia, il professor Edward Johnston e i suoi studenti stanno studiando le rovine di una città medievale. Sospettoso della conoscenza del sito mostrata dal loro misterioso finanziatore, torna negli Stati Uniti per indagare. Ma in sua assenza, gli studenti fanno una scoperta inquietante tra le rovine: i resti da tempo decomposti degli occhiali di Johnston e un messaggio in inglese moderno. Le implicazioni sono sbalorditive. Le conseguenze sono sconvolgenti. E il passato remoto non è più così lontano. ______________________ Considerato sempre più un classico sottovalutato che si erge fiero accanto alle sue opere più famose come Jurassic Park e Westworld, Timeline conferma Michael Crichton come il re del thriller concettuale e, per giunta, un maestro della narrazione.

Paperback. Condizione: Fair. Sometimes, it seems like you can reach out and touch the past. An old man wearing a brown robe is found wandering disoriented in the Arizona desert. He is miles from any human habitation and has no memory of how he got to be there, or who he is. The only clue to his identity is the plan of a medieval monastery in his pocket. In France, Professor Edward Johnston and his students are studying the ruins of a medieval town. Suspicious of the knowledge of the site shown by their mysterious financier, he returns to the US to investigate. But in his absence, the students make a disturbing discovery in the ruins: the long-decayed remains of Johnston's glasses - and a message in modern English. The implications are staggering. The consequences are earth-shaking. And the distant past isn't so distant any more. ______________________ Increasingly considered an underappreciated classic that stands proudly alongside his more famous works like Jurassic Park and Westworld, Timeline confirms Michael Crichton as the king of the high-concept thriller, and a master storyteller to boot. A readable copy of the book which may include some defects such as highlighting and notes. Cover and pages may be creased and show discolouration. Codice articolo GOR000185437
