Timothy asked Paul Tremblay:

Paul maybe this has been asked before and excuse me if it has .. I am currently reading " A headful of Ghosts". I am enjoying but having trouble pacing it linearly .... I had assumed the novel was "set" in current day with the past events of the possession 16 years in the past, but many cultural / pop references make this impossible, so does that mean the "present day" narrative is actually 16 years in our future ?

Paul Tremblay The reality show stuff happens in the near now (or 2014 when I wrote it) and Merry and Rachel are chatting 15 years in the future.
