The Big Time

Extract: I didn't get this book. There were many things about it I could recognize and react to. A group of people are locked in a room and philosophize on what's going on outside. In our case, outside is a war where time travel is used in an attempt to change the course of history. The scenario reminded me of Sartre's No Exit, or Genet's The Balcony. In the end, though, I just didn't get it.
