Time Traveling Through Utopias

The Leonard Lopate Show | Feb 6, 2017

Award-winning screenwriter Elan Mastai joins us to discuss his debut novel, All Our Wrong Todays. Set in a utopian version of 2016, complete with flying cars and moving sidewalks, it tells the story of Tom Barren. Despite the fact that he lives in an idealistic world free from want, he is not happy. He inadvertently becomes a time traveler and manages to send himself back to the year 1965.

Along with Jonathan Tropper, Elan Mastai will present All Our Wrong Todays, followed by a book signing, on Tuesday, February 7th at 7:30pm at WORD at 123 Newark Ave. in Jersey City. For more information, click here.
