The Time Traveler's Wife

CriticsCritics: 43
AudienceAudience: 6.9

A librarian with an involuntary genetic condition is suddenly pulled through time, appearing at different points in the life of the artist he loves. Their relationship must endure unexpected disappearances, shifting ages, and the emotional strain of building a life together under impossible circumstances.

My take

You may enjoy this if you like emotionally charged romances with unusual premises, such as About Time or The Lake House; Not for you if you want tightly explained time-travel rules or a plot driven by changing history.
