Although Rebecca Wright has pieced her life back together after a major tragedy, she can’t shake a sense that the world around her feels off-kilter. Meanwhile, her husband’s dedication to his invention, “the causality violation device” (which he would greatly prefer you not call a time machine) has effectively stalled his career—but he may be closer to success than either of them can possibly imagine. Emotionally powerful and wickedly intelligent, Version Control is a stunningly prescient novel about the effects of science and technology on our lives, our friendships, and our sense of self that will alter the way you see the future—and the present.

“Exhilarating. . . . A thoughtful, powerful overhaul of the age-old time travel tale.” —NPR

“With time travel as a fascinating backdrop, Palmer delicately examines the layers of stories we create when trying to differentiate ‘the information from the truth.’” —The Washington Post

“One of 2016’s best science fiction novels. . . . Version Control should be on the reading list of every fan of smart sci-fi.” —GQ

“Engrossing and strange. . . . A knowing, frequently funny and often very sad novel that explores love, marriage and loss in the age of social media.” —San Francisco Chronicle

“Brilliant and richly satisfying: a novel that is utterly true to the complicated and science fictional world we live in today.” —Buzzfeed
