Mark Selby, born in June of 1940, achieves a unique perspective on life and war and death due
to the fact that he lives each day from morning to night, aging in the usual way, but the
next morning he wakes up on the previous day until he eventually dies just after (or is it
before?) Lincoln’s assassination.
Tomorrow, my tomorrow, is the day of the President’s death.
