Yes, it's striking how place (space?) affects our experience of time. Are you familiar with Nabokov's Pnin? Parts are quite moving where he captures the liminal aspect.

I'm ashamed to say that I haven't yet read Pnin, but I hope to! It sounds fascinating.

It's a generous and gentle book, not the more forbidding Nabokov of Ada and all that, which can become tiresome unless you're an enthusiast.

Pnin will also make you laugh. If you have time, you might want to check it out.
