"I won't ever leave you, even though you're always leaving me."

—— Audrey Niffenegger, The Time Traveler's Wife

這場奇特又神奇的旅程始自克萊兒與亨利兩人相遇，那年她才六歲，而他卅六；結婚時克萊兒正值芳年廿二而亨利則是卅才俊。這一切看來不可能但卻真實發生，因為亨利是第一位被診斷罹患「時間錯位症」（Chrono-Displacement Disorder）的患者，間歇性的造成亨利的基因時鐘重新設定，他發現自己會突然被拉回過去或跑到未來，而這自發且無來由地瞬間消失，讓亨利的遭遇既痛苦卻又令人感到有趣。

作者尼芬格以優雅間或詼諧幽默的文字，描述時空旅行對亨利以及克萊兒熱切的愛戀對彼此所造成的影響，面對無法操控且難以避免的神奇力量，兩人掙扎著設法過如同一般人的正常生活，而他們的努力付出這一切看來格外動人與難以忘懷。

本作同名改編電影由羅伯史溫基（Robert Schwentke）執導，布魯斯祖爾羅賓斯（Bruce Joel Rubin）擔任編劇原著改編的重責大任，演員由《驚爆焦點》瑞秋麥亞當斯（Rachel McAdams）領銜主演，艾瑞克巴納（Eric Bana）、朗李文斯頓（Ron Livingston）、史蒂芬托波羅斯基（Stephen Tobolowsky）等人聯合演出。電影於2009年08月14日於全美上映，首周票房即達六億一千四百萬，全球票房更高達三十二億四千一百萬台幣。

本版收錄新作《她的對稱靈魂》（Her Fearful Symmetry）搶先試讀。

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 unforgettable.
