About this listen

Writing as Aja Mie, THE HEARTBREAK OF TIME TRAVEL is autobiographical fiction.

Snuffy Cod is the sole caregiver for her dying husband... okay... stop. He does die, but sometime in the future—a future she visits on and off through popovers to past and present. Snuffy’s visits occur in fits and starts via some perceived time travel portal. She embarks on these excursions several times throughout the day, hour, minute, second—sometimes simply during a thought. Nothing more. Nothing less. Is it escapism? Of course not. Don’t be silly. Pshaw! Meanwhile, her husband lays flat, unmoving in a hospital bed upstairs on an excruciatingly slow slide toward death—death by molasses slick. Or is he? If Snuffy Cod can remain in the past, even the present, might she be able to prevent a future and, thusly, his impending death?

THE HEARTBREAK OF TIMETRAVEL is a brutally honest deep dive into dementia, caregiving, grief, hope, and love.
