Résumé :
A dazzling novel in the most untraditional fashion, this is the remarkable story of Henry DeTamble, a dashing, adventuresome librarian who travels involuntarily through time, and Clare Abshire, an artist whose life takes a natural sequential course. Henry and Clare's passionate love affair endures across a sea of time and captures the two lovers in an impossibly romantic trap, and it is Audrey Niffenegger's cinematic storytelling that makes the novel's unconventional chronology so vibrantly triumphant. An enchanting debut and a spellbinding tale of fate and belief in the bonds of love, The Time Traveler's Wife is destined to captivate readers for years to come.

I have to give this book a rating of 'very good' because it is so skillfully crafted. The writing is powerful enough to truly convey the surreal terror and dislocation of time travel. The plot itself is dissected and scattered out-of-sequence, so that it took me awhile to put enough pieces together to start to form a picture. And the picture was deeply disturbing to me. I could have skipped reading this book; the emotional shocks did not, in the end, enlighten me or induce much reflection; they only caused me pain. I will not be going to see the Gus VanZant movie version that is rumored to be in the works.I think Niffenegger's description of the hero's time travel could be an apt metaphor for some types of psychiatric illness, like schizophrenia. I don't know, but I kept wondering throughout the book whether the author was writing from a personal experience with someone so psychically dislocated. Although the time travel is fiction, the undercurrent themes of abiding love, endurance and loss are convincingly real. Be prepared to cry if you venture into this novel.
