And died again. And lived again and died again -- in a continuous twenty-five-year cycle -- each time starting from scratch at the age of eighteen to reclaim lost loves, remedy past mistakes, or make a fortune in the stock market. A novel of gripping adventure, romance, and fascinating speculation on the nature of time, Replay asks the question: "What if you could live your life over again?" Average Rating:
 Rating:  - ReplayThe premise of the book is what we all wonder about as we are going to sleep. What would you change if you could live your life over?

An absolutely ordinary, out-of-shape, going nowhere guy named Jeff Winston has a heart attack at his desk and dies. But he awakes suddenly--in his life of 25 years before. Replay is the story of his several lives--a life where money is the sole object, a life where Jeff's only child is his focus, a life of solitude in the mountains. What Jeff learns in his unique journey through time is the point of Greenwood's novel. This ...

Grimwood has an astonishing talent for balancing rich narrative detail with concision; I can't imagine anyone else who could condense an entire lifetime into a single chapter without losing one iota of flavor of the characters or their environment. This is a model every writer should emulate. The story itself is equally superb: by turns poignant, disturbing ... Read More |
