The Stan Jones Quintet — Tom Ryan

What if you could meet yourself as a younger person, or as an older version of yourself? Would you be able to tell everything to the youngster that he or she wanted to know? Would you be able to learn everything you wanted to about your future? Young Stan Jones meets four other people who are very much like him. But none of them are him, exactly. Why are they all here, today? This novella poses these questions. But does it answer any of them?
