That Time is Past is my first attempt at a novel. I'd give it about 5/10.

That Time is Past

Bia Talgo

When Isabella vanishes in an Italian fishing village the two prime suspects are Shelley and Byron. Except both have been dead for 200 years.


The other suspects:
Ivan, narcissistic Shelley biographer, on the run from his wife

Felix, alcoholic film star, recently acquitted of rape.

Jake the penniless bipolar busker and self-confessed rake.

Magnus, the priestly sculptor who is restoring a medieval papier-mâché Virgin Mary
Rufus, celebrity photographer and inveterate name dropper

Gavin, the unscrupulous paparazzo

A novel about men and their deadly romantic projections on the female image.

It’s an odd experience reading here because you know when you start anything that you’re not going to finish it so it isn’t like reading a real book. I’m not really interested in “stories” – which is what most of the books here are. It’s a bit like judging an endless array of suburban gardens – how ... view book

Read chapters one and thirty three. Great voice to this and heaps of craft in its choreography. The prose consistently has an exciting twist in its tail and pulses with vitality. Speaks the language of the decade in which we live too, which seems to be a rare quality on this site. Great stuff. view book
