Henry DeTamble is a charming, adventurous librarian with an extraordinary problem—he cannot stop traveling through time. Without warning, he is pulled from the present to moments in his past or future, living life out of sequence. Clare Abshire is an artist whose life moves forward in the usual way, yet her path is forever entwined with Henry’s unpredictable arrivals and departures.
Their love story defies the boundaries of time, weaving together moments of joy, longing, and heartbreak. Each meeting is a gift, each parting a test of devotion, and every reunion a reminder that their bond is stronger than the forces pulling them apart.
Audrey Niffenegger’s The Time Traveler’s Wife is a spellbinding exploration of fate, loss, and the endurance of love across a lifetime.
