A 'groundhog day' novel in which the central character, Ursula, lives through many versions of her own life during the mid-twentieth century. Random chance and éjà-vu experiences can alter lives and history, but the book avoids the notion that we must learn from our mistakes in order to progress.
An intriguing and clever idea, developed with originality, makes for a satisfying read and my interest never flagged.
