How To Stop Time by Matt Haig
The novel follows Tom Hazard, a man who appears to be an ordinary 41-year-old but has actually been alive for centuries due to a rare condition that drastically slows his aging process. As he navigates the complexities of modern life, Tom grapples with the loneliness and challenges of his prolonged existence, haunted by memories of past loves and losses. He is part of a secretive society that enforces strict rules to protect people like him, but his yearning for a normal life and connection leads him to question these constraints. The story explores themes of time, identity, and the importance of living in the present.
