Customer Reviews:
The Book is Better than the Movie
I bought this book knowing that I would be watching the movie soon. I'm glad I read the book first as it contained a lot more to the love story of Henry and Clare compared to the movie version. This is the love story of Henry and Clare. Henry is a time traveller (and the author actually explains it so that it makes sense and seems normal!) and first meets Clare when she is 6 years old. This is a very thick book, which traces their lives together. The focus is on Clare and her encounters with Henry.

Sometimes it was difficult to know who was talking as the author had characters talking but no names next to the dialogue. Sometimes I had to look back to see who started the conversation and count the lines. Also, each section had a heading so you knew how old Henry was and how old Clare was at the time of each encounter. Each section was pretty short, so it was easy to put the book down and take a break. I didn't have to wade through any long chapters.

It was a good read, and I would recommend this book to others.

It was good.
Every time I Google this book I see hundreds of raving reviews. I just don't feel it. It IS a good love story that involves time travel in a unique way but it's a little redundant, way to long and just lacking something. Halfway through I felt like "I get it he can travel in time already!!"

It's not a terrible book but it's not the best book I've read this year it's average. I seen it's being paired with The Kite Runner and to be honest I much preferred that.

I did really like all the music, as a huge fan of the Violent Femmes it was cool to see their songs throughout and I did like the cover.

A Must Read!
Wonderful, wonderful story. I was hesitant at first to buy this book but after reading such great reviews about it, I finally did. And yes, it is definitely worth it. Will be on top of my favorite books of all time.

Great book
This is one of the best books I have read for some time. It is beautifully crafted, well written and truly memorable. I have been telling all my friends about it as I want to share the experience. It is about love and longing, enforced separations and questions how much control any of us have over the path our lives take. More than anything it is a moving and powerful love story but with enough guts to keep male readers satisfied! It manages to balance tragedy and humour perfectly so even in the bleakest moments there is hope. The human condition prevails over everything that fate (or God if you prefer) can deliver. The characters of Henry and Clare are well developed and their flaws and failings make them believable. The story hops through time and space but never falters or drags. I found it hard to put this book down and days after finishing it I still found myself thinking it over. A stunning novel! Read it! I'd also recommend reading the mesmerising and highly evocative novel The Fates by Tino Georgiou.

An amazingly fun reading
シカゴのNewberry Libraryに勤めるHenry DeTambleは、実は幼い頃から意図せず突然に時間線を過去へ未来へとタイムスリップしてしまう“time traveler”であった。彼はいわば遺伝子の突然変異によって偶然誕生した「新種」である。Henryが36歳の時、迷い込んだ過去で６歳のClareと出会う。突如として現れ、そして消失したHenryに幼いClareは恐れと好奇心を抱く。しかし繰り返し現れては消える未来のHenryとの奇妙な関係はClareが成人するまで続き、そして二人はついにお互いの「現在時間」に出会いを遂げる。しかしHenryはこの時28歳、Clareの存在などまったく知らない。そして想像を超えた「未来」が二人を待ち受ける.....時間を隔てた恋愛ファンタジーにはフィニーの傑作など少なくないが、Niffeneggerは意思に反してタイムスリップを繰り返す男と、彼に翻弄されながらもお互いに心強く結ばれていく女性との切ない愛を、現代的な感覚でヴィヴィッドに描いている。かといって!安っぽい荒唐無稽な恋愛ドラマなどではない。時間SFとして読んでも傑作の部類に入るだろうし、何より作者が描くのは出会い、喪失、苦悩、一途な愛、誕生、死、謎、家族、驚き、といった人生のドラマである。神出鬼没のHenryと妻Clareの人生はそれこそハプニングと困難の連続だが、そこに見えてくるのは誰もが生涯を通して経験する人間臭い感情であり、だからこそ強く心を揺さぶられる作品となっている。新基軸のSFやファンタジーが読みたい人、一途で切ない不滅の愛の物語を読みたい人、娯楽小説が好きな人などすべての人に読んでいただきたい作品だ。
