Time traveller’s wife
The Time Traveller's Wife" is a modern day fable of love in the face of a genetic anomaly that keeps tossing a guy named Henry, naked and quivering, in and out of his better half's life at the most unpredictable and inconvenient of times.
This happens first when young Clare is 6 and alone in a meadow and a 36-year-old naked stranger calls to her from behind the bushes. He asks for her blanket and wants to say "Hi."
One day when henry was back in travel when he was 27. In Chicago, however, he is not able to control the moment or the destiny of his voyages. When the stranger Clare meets him in the library, she invites him to have dinner with her in his favourite restaurant Beau Thai where she confesses that she has been in love with him since she was six years old. Henry leans that he had visited her many times in the real state of her parents and he falls in love with her. Sooner they get married, but the life of Clare becomes troubled with the successive unexpected travels of her beloved husband.
This book has been talking about how a woman using the rest of her life for waiting a person that she loved that travel around and don’t even know when his coming back. She raised their baby on her own. She’s being so Strong and just to be in love with someone that’s not existing for half of her life time.

As this was the first book by the author, I was not expecting much but after reading it I was completely stunned. The book is written magnificently by the author. There are hardly any glitch either from the point of writing or story. You might expect few errors from a literary person while writing sci-fiction. But I hardly found them (except time travel gene).

Another good point of a book which I found interesting is that the author keeps rotating narration from Clare to Henry in the whole book. And she kept the track of time-line in a perfect manner.

From a romance novel point of view also, it has all the flavor. She has shown the ups and downs in the married life and the love of Clare for Henry and vice-versa.

If you are an avid reader and fond of books, you can't miss this one.
