Evince

What makes Of Time and Turtles more broadly resonant, and perhaps the most timely entry into Montgomery’s extensive body of work, is the context in which it has been published. Since the start of the covid-19 pandemic, many of us have reported changes in our experience of time, from the monotonous blur of the lockdowns to the sense, as evinced by the so-called “Great Resignation” of stressed-out workers reassessing what they want from life, that we must make the most of the days we have. Turtles — having existed on Earth for around 250 million years, with many individuals routinely living past 100 years old — are an unexpected but apt way into questions about pace of life versus peace of mind that maybe of concern for many of us.
