Book description
The final chapter of Connie Willis's Oxford time travel saga lands with the emotional precision of a wartime bomb-and somehow emerges as something far more tender. Picking up where Blackout left off, All Clear follows three historians stranded in 1940s England, their mission now complicated by the horrifying realization that they may have altered the very history they were sent to observe.
Michael, Merope, and Polly aren't just trying to get home anymore-they're fighting to survive in a world under siege, all while grappling with the moral weight of their presence. Was a kind gesture to a child, a moment of courage, or even a casual conversation enough to shift the tide of war? Willis turns time travel theory on its head, making the past not a museum to be observed, but a fragile web that trembles at every touch.
Back in 2060, the chaos mirrors the past. Mr. Dunworthy scrambles to track down his missing students, while young Colin-desperate, love-struck, and reckless-dives headfirst into danger just to reach Polly. His obsession becomes a lifeline, his inexperience a strength.
Willis writes with her signature blend of scholarly wit and deep human feeling. The humor is gentle, the stakes are monumental, and the characters so real you'll forget they're jumping through time. All Clear isn't just a conclusion-it's a quiet tribute to the unsung heroes of history, delivered with heart, wisdom, and the kind of storytelling only a master could pull off.
