内容简介
This extraordinary, magical novel is the story of Clare and Henry who have known each other since Clare was six and Henry was thirty-six, and were married when Clare was twenty-two and Henry thirty. Impossible but true, because Henry is one of the first people diagnosed with Chrono-Displacement Disorder: periodically his genetic clock resets and he finds himself pulled suddenly into his past or future. His disappearances are spontaneous and his experiences are alternately harrowing and amusing. The Time Traveler's Wife depicts the effects of time travel on Henry and Clare's passionate love for each other with grace and humour. Their struggle to lead normal lives in the face of a force they can neither prevent nor control is intensely moving and entirely unforgetable.

精彩书评
“This clever and inventive tale works on three levels: as an intriguing science fiction concept, a realistic character study and a touching love story. 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.”
——Publishers Weekly
“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.”

读了这本书之后,我发现作者在做班主任工作的时候也有很多的无奈,她曾经这样说过:“‘只有不会教的老师,没有教不好的学生’——在我看来,这句话和‘人有多大胆,地有多大产’是一路的。如果是教师之外的人这样说的,那他就是在恶意地欺负人,把教师往绝路上逼;如果教师自己这样说,那他不是幼稚就是自大狂,迟早要碰个头破血流。我曾经属于后一类。那时,我处于极度危险的境地。”看薛老师这些话,你能觉得这是一个真实的老师,她说的话就象是邻居唠家常那样真诚自然。对于书中她大胆、直率的言辞,我很钦佩,不是每个人都有这种胆识、思维的。她能把一件看似简单惯常的事情剖析提头头是道,透过了表象看到了它的内在根源。她有勇气把一些不同与大家都说的话写在纸上,让别人看,虽然多数人心理或许也如她所想。但凭这一点儿,就让人佩服至极。比如,她对“老师象蜡烛、春蚕”,“没有教不好的学生,只有教不好的老师”这些话的评析,一针见血,道出了我们老师的共同心声。之所以造就了她感说真话,敢于抵制一切不利于学生成长和进步的制度。因为薛老师的人生信念就是:缺乏真诚、理性和趣味的日子是不值得过的。教育教学中有了平衡愉悦的心态,正确的定位和良好的策略,才能在饱满热情中,在正确策略中扶植学生向上。 薛老师在自序中写道,“我是特意捕捉了清风、乐声和野芳,录在这里,专门用于鼓励自己,就算是不定期地给自己献一小朵小花吧——真诚美丽的文字,正是心灵开出的花朵。”又一次阐述了她的人生信念——-真诚。读了全书,给我最深刻的感受也是她的真诚,我看到了一个真实的人,一个真诚的老师。当学生的时候,老师是权威,跟老师的交往总是处于向上看的状态,学生是一定要小心翼翼的,多数情况还是听老师说的多,自己发表意见少。现在当了家长,为了孩子跟老师也没少打交道,但是一直觉得自己好多真实的想法不敢说,老师呢,说出来的也有一些让人觉得是官话套话。看了这本书,我想我们也许都错了,老师跟学生、老师跟家长,平等地真诚的交流其实并不难。工作是艰辛——往往也是孤独的。可是,于飞尘的间隙也有清风,于喧嚷的中间也有乐声,于荆棘的丛中也有野芳。我是特意捕捉了清风、乐声和野芳,录在这里,专门用于鼓励自己,就算是不定期地给自己献一朵小花吧——真诚美丽的文字,正是心灵开出的花朵。也有沉重和迷惘。但我的文字,往往略掉了疲惫、沮丧和困苦——无涉乎诚实、全面与否,这是我的选择——有意的,我将目光投在了值得的地方,心得体会
