Maybe I just had time travel on the brain in 2020-21 when I was working on my own time travel novel,
"Vaulting through Time," but suddenly it seemed that everywhere I turned I found new books about temporal displacement, time loops, time skips, time slips or parallel timelines, and the onslaught continues today. What's going on? Have we traveled to an alternate universe with a whole new set of literary expectations around time?
Already in the pipeline before the pandemic, many of these novels may have struck at the right moment, given a boost by a widespread distorted perception of time.
