Sorrentino / A Strange Commonplace / Time

This was an attempt to assign each chapter of A Strange Commonplace to a definite era. My reasons for assigning them as I did, which often involved significant guess work, can be found by clicking on the link to each chapter. Some general remarks about time in this book are here.
