The Time Traveler's Wife

by Audrey Niffenegger
11602 members / 0 friends / 93 groups / 985 reviews / 285 tags

A dazzling novel in the most untraditional fashion, this is the remarkable story of Henry DeTamble, a dashing, adventuresome librarian who travels involuntarily through time, and Clare Abshire, an artist whose life takes a natural sequential course. Henry and Clare's passionate love affair endures across a sea of time and captures the two lovers in an impossibly romantic trap, and it is Audrey Niffenegger's cinematic storytelling that makes the novel's unconventional chronology so vibrantly triumphant.

An enchanting debut and a spellbinding tale of fate and belief in the bonds of love, The Time Traveler's Wife is destined to captivate readers for years to come.

    If you want more of this concept try Octavia Butler's Kinder. Anything by Butler is amazing (we lost her way too soon).

    I just finished reading this book. I really liked it. I'm a sap for anything like lovey like that haha! I've been putting reading it off and off until a few days ago when I picked it up. When I started I just struggled to put it down. It was a really good story, very sad. It's a beautiful love story. It's heartbreaking.

    I'd definitely recommend this to anyone. I hope the film version isn't terrible but I think it will be.

    A modern masterpiece in my opinion.

    Good story, but poorly written. The sentence structure is really clunky and distracting.
