Summary: "Z" by Charles L. Fontenay is a science fiction novel crafted in the mid-20th century. The narrative explores the intriguing and complex concept of time reversal, particularly through the experiences of two characters, Summer and Wyn Storm, who find themselves mysteriously displaced in time and struggling with their identities and relationships. The story raises thought-provoking questions about the nature of existence, love, and memory against a backdrop of scientific theory. The plot centers on Don Gracey, who encounters Summer and her husband Wyn Storm during a thunderstorm in Central Park. After a lightning strike seemingly disrupts their reality, the couple exhibits strange behavior and memory issues, causing Don to take them in and help them navigate their newfound lives. Over the years, Don develops a deep and conflicted love for Summer as she undergoes peculiar changes, including an inexplicable process of aging backward. As Wyn embarks on a quest to understand and possibly reverse this phenomenon, the story delves into themes of identity, time, and the intricate dynamics of love, leading to an astonishing revelation about the intertwined fates of the characters and the implications of time travel.
