Emma Straub’s latest novel, This Time Tomorrow, is a book about time travel, but it’s not only about time travel—it’s a reflection of her relationship with her aging father. While undoubtedly fiction, it sometimes straddles the boundaries of autofiction, as Straub weaves in some deeply personal aspects of herself and her real-life father.
I recently spoke with Emma Straub about this father-daughter relationship, the nature of time travel, and her Brooklyn based bookstore, Books Are Magic. This episode of Marginalia features our conversation.
