Synopsis
In the New Mexico desert, a young woman finds a man lying naked by the roadside—unconscious, marked with strange geometric scars, and speaking in broken English that seems barely English at all.
He has no name, no ID, and no idea where—or when—he is. As local police, doctors, and skeptics try to make sense of him, the mystery deepens: his dialect is subtly wrong, his memory fragmented, his body a map of cryptic etchings.
Some think he’s delusional. Others suspect something stranger. But what if he’s telling the truth? What if he really is from the future—and simply can’t explain it?
Set against the stark beauty of the American Southwest, Temporal Babel is a speculative novel about language, memory, and the limits of understanding. As characters wrestle with communication breakdowns and the friction of belief, the story asks: how much of who we are is bound to when we are? And what happens when that bond is broken?
For readers of Kazuo Ishiguro, Jeff VanderMeer, and Samuel R. Delany, this is a quiet, disorienting tale of alienation and fragile connection in a world that doesn’t have a name for what’s happened—yet.
