Overview

A brilliant, genre-exploding love story about a man who, in a moment of extreme stress, time travels to the year 1300, where his modern problems are replaced by medieval brutalities. Newly laid off George's internet bill is in his ex-boyfriend's name. He's got a spider-infested apartment, and two of the six dogs he's walking in London have just escaped. It's pure undiluted stress that sends him into a spiral--all the way to the year 1300. When he comes to, George recognizes the same rolling hills of Greenwich Park. But the luxuries and phone service of modernity are nowhere. In their place are locals with a bizarre, slanted speech in awe of his foreign clothes, who swiftly toss him in a dungeon. Despite the barbarity of a medieval world, a servant named Simon helps George acclimate to a simpler, easier existence. But rumors of a dragon haunting the countryside and a summons from the King threaten to send his life up in flames--this time, literally. A confessional queer romance, a swords-and-sorcery soap opera, a paradox-embracing reimagining of the legend of St. George and the Dragon, George Falls Through Time is a profound meditation on the nature of desire that pits modern sensibilities against a raw and alien backdrop. It asks whether we can love each other without destroying one another, even when life feels like a pile of bills.
