Der Leuchtturm an der Schwelle der Zeit

Come home when you remember.

In 1898, Joe Tournier awakens without any memories at the Gare du Roi train station in London. The world is turned upside down: England is French, and Joe is admitted to a psychiatric clinic. Shortly after he regains his freedom, a mysterious postcard arrives for him, having traveled 90 years to reach him.

The postcard features a lighthouse on an island in the Outer Hebrides named Eilean Mor, and on the back is a short message: "Dearest Joe, come home when you remember. M." What is the significance of the lighthouse, and how can a middle-aged man be missing from a 90-year-old past? And who is M.? Joe ultimately embarks on a perilous journey to Scotland to search for the lighthouse and instead finds a path into the past. Suddenly, he is caught up in the turmoil of the great battles between England and France, which were decided long before his birth. It quickly becomes clear that every step into the past also influences his future. Clear your weekend and let yourself be swept away. - New York Times.
