Two events made September first a memorable day for Jesse Cullum. First, he lost a pair of Oakley sunglasses. Second, he saved the life of President Ulysses S. Grant.
In the near future of Robert Charles Wilson's Last Year, the technology exists to open doorways into the past - but not our past, not exactly. Each "past" is effectively an alternate world, identical to ours but only up to the date on which we access it. And a given "past" can be reached only once. After a passageway is open, it's the only road to that particular past; once closed, it can't be reopened.
A passageway has been opened to a version of late 19th-century Ohio. It's been in operation for most of a decade, but it's no secret on either side of time. A small city has grown up around it to entertain visitors from our time, and many locals earn a good living catering to them. But like all such operations, it has a shelf life; as the "natives" become more sophisticated, their version of the "past" grows less attractive as a destination.
Jesse Cullum is a native. And he knows the passageway will be closing soon. He's fallen in love with a woman from our time, and he means to follow her back - no matter whose secrets he has to expose in order to do it.

This story made me think. I’m glad, and I will continue to think about it, for a long time.
Psychology

The main sci-fi theme is time travel with the convenient twist that travel backward in time is limited to a tight window in the range of a couple of centuries. Furthermore, the standard time travel paradox is resolved by positing an infinite array of timelines, such that travel to the past disconnects the present from that specific past's future timeline. There is good mix of the thrilling, mundane, and even melodrama that makes for an engaging tale that moves quickly.
Narration is first rate with excellent character distinction of both genders. Pacing is moderately fast with an easy flowing style that renders a quick listen.
The good old days were not so good
