Time storage

A mysterious psychiatrist named Gaustin opens a clinic in which he successfully treats Alzheimer's patients, returning them to the happy times of their past. Who is this Gaustin - a real person, the "alterego" of the narrator or a ghost lost between times? We don't know. But we know something else: soon his philanthropic idea will lead to a series of large-scale and unpredictable events on the entire European continent. The Time Vault is a novel by one of the brightest modern Bulgarian writers, Giorgi Gospodinov, awarded with the Booker International Prize. It is a poignant, intricate and tense story about aging and living in one's own finitude, about the elusiveness of time and the dark, demonic side of nostalgia for the past.
