Henry De Tamble is a Chicago librarian with "Chrono Displacement" disorder; at random times, he suddenly disappears without warning and finds himself in the past or future, usually at a time or place of importance in his life. This leads to some wonderful paradoxes. From his point of view, he first met his wife, Clare, when he was 28 and she was 20. She ran up to him exclaiming that she'd known him all her life. He, however, had never seen her before. But when he reaches his 40s, already married to Clare, he suddenly finds himself time travelling to Clare's childhood and meeting her as a 6-year-old. The book alternates between Henry and Clare's points of view, and so does the narration. Reed ably expresses the longing of the one always left behind, the frustrations of their unusual lifestyle, and above all, her overriding love for Henry. Likewise, Burns evokes the fear of a man who never knows where or when he'll turn up, and his gratitude at having Clare, whose love is his anchor. The expressive, evocative performances of both actors convey the protagonists' intense relationship, their personal quirks and their reminiscences, making this a fascinating audio.

　　 On the surface, Henry and Clare Detamble are a normal couple living in Chicago's Lincoln Park neighborhood. Henry works at the Newberry Library and Clare creates abstract paper art, but the cruel reality is that Henry is a prisoner of time. It sweeps him back and forth at its leisure, from the present to the past, with no regard for where he is or what he is doing. It drops him naked and vulnerable into another decade, wearing an age-appropriate face. In fact, it's not unusual for Henry to run into the other Henry and help him out of a jam. Sound unusual? Imagine Clare Detamble's astonishment at seeing Henry dropped stark naked into her parents' meadow when she was only six. Though, of course, until she came of age, Henry was always the perfect gentleman and gave young Clare nothing but his friendship as he dropped in and out of her life. It's no wonder that the film rights to this hip and urban love story have been acquired. Elsa Gaztambide

看自己的妻子长大
阿北(音乐无限人生苦短多点垃圾筒)

从小到大，我在时间旅行的故事面前没有任何招架之力。好的肯定不会错过，即便明明知道是烂小说、烂电影，还是忍不住要去看。所以在Amazon上订了几本在豆瓣上得知的小说之后，被推荐The Time Traveler's Wife, 结果自不必说。何况它的归类是fiction, 不是sci-fi。想想看，一本给成年人看的时间旅...... (30回应)

艺术学院派写作典型
zeze(与其在豆瓣上点来点去不如看会书)

如果是若干年前，未经过美国艺术学院的几年，我看这本书的态度恐怕会很不同的。首先，一个有意思的创意，并未停在原地，而是被尽可能的舒展开来。时间穿梭是一个闪光的点子，之后呢--之后，能看出作者在不停地问自己如果这样如果那样的问题，在向各个可能的方向探索，就好像在做一个设计项目，在写一篇没有限制的论文。这种探索是有条...... (6回应)

不及格的科幻，勉強及格的小說
GreenFire

因為工作關係，有人拿了 The Time Traveler's Wife（Audrey Niffenegger, Harvest）這本小說給我看，基本上算是「披著科幻外衣的愛情故事」。嗯……怎麼說呢，我想各位可以去瞄瞄 Amazon 的讀者評語──那些三顆星以下的我差不多都相當同意。（我給了兩顆）不過，從網站上...... (6回应)

我们怎么抓得住时间
nagiaqiao(书内存知己，天涯若比邻)

这本书是今年看的书里最值得五星推荐的，上次看过中文就欠一篇读后感没写，一忙过去就没冲动写了，这次从头把原版读了一遍，更觉得应该好好和大家推荐。这本书建议大家大可以买中文版看，我读了两个版本，很少有这样的感叹，中文翻译没有减损原版的魅力，反而增加了美感，这位翻译的功力真是牛！中文版比原版更增添诗歌一...... (16回应)

About The Time Traveler's Wife
艾苏拉(我要修炼成有腹肌的女人！！)

有没有一本书让你非常喜爱却不敢再读第二遍呢？对我来说，The Time Traveler's Wife就是这样一本书。最早看见这本书是两年前在学校图书馆的架子上。我挑书第一关是看封面，而这本书的封面刚好与其他书泛滥的花哨封面不同，简单，且泛着淡淡的寂寞味道。一个穿着白袜子黑皮鞋的小女孩，旁边放着...... (3回应)

朝朝暮暮
littlefish(想得够厉害才会成功)

我是一个很容易被感动的人，以前看《泰坦尼克》就哭得稀里哗啦，现在在网上随便看一篇三俗的虐心文也会啪嗒啪嗒掉眼泪，所以我说这篇文让我感动到哭也没啥特别的，特别的是，我没有敢按照以往的读书习惯把这篇小说最吸引人最神奇的关于死亡和重生的后部分一气呵成地读完，恩，我怕自己脆弱敏感（想吐的亲可以先去吐，后面的文尽量不恶搞...... (2回应)
