Publisher's Synopsis

THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

'I am old. That is the first thing to tell you. The thing you are least likelyto believe. If you saw me you would probably think I was about forty, but youwould be very wrong.'

Tom Hazard has a dangerous secret. He may look like an ordinary 41-year-old,but owing to a rare condition, he's been alive for centuries. From ElizabethanEngland to Jazz-Age Paris, from New York to the South Seas, Tom has seen a lot,and now craves an ordinary life.

Always changing his identity to stay alive, Tom has the perfect cover - workingas a history teacher at a London comprehensive. Here he can teach the kidsabout wars and witch hunts as if he'd never witnessed them first-hand. He cantry to tame the past that is fast catching up with him. The only thing Tom mustnot do is fall in love.

How to Stop Time is a wild and bittersweet story about losing andfinding yourself, about the certainty of change and about the lifetimes it cantake to really learn how to live.
