Eclectic Readers
The Time Traveler’s Wife by Audrey Niffenegger is the Eclectic Readers choice for February when we meet to talk about Niffenegger’s innovative debut novel, published in 2005. The Time Traveler’s Wife depicts the effects of time travel on Henry and Clare’s marriage and their passionate love for each other as the story unfolds from both points of view. Clare and Henry attempt to live normal lives, pursuing familiar goals – steady jobs, good friends, children of their own. All of this is threatened by something they can neither prevent nor control, making their story intensely moving and entirely unforgettable. Brown bag lunch at 11:30 a.m. and discussion starts at noon.
