Life After Life

She is trapped in an endless time loop in which she is reliving every


possible variation of her life and death. For example, she drowns in the
ocean at the age of two in her first incarnation owing to the umbilical
chord being knotted around her neck, and she dies during birth in her
second incarnation due to the umbilical cord being tied around her
neck, etc. This cycle repeats itself, allowing Ursula to live a bit longer
each time. Even during WWII, she lived and experienced life as both an
English and a German lady. She eventually realizes she has lived before
and attempts to assassinate Hitler in 1930. There are many themes, but
I believe fate and free choice are the two most powerful.
