The Time Traveler's
Wife
£7.19
This extraordinary, magical novel is the story of Clare & Henry who have known each other since Clare was six & Henry was thirty-six, & were married when Clare was twenty-two & Henry thirty.

His disappearances are spontaneous & his experiences are alternately harrowing & amusing. The Time Traveler's Wife depicts the effects of time travel on Henry & Clare's passionate love for each other with grace & humour. Their struggle to lead normal lives in the face of a force they can neither prevent nor control is intensely moving & entirely unforgettable. ...

Product Description

The past is a foreign country: this is your guidebook.

Imagine you could get into a time machine & travel back to the fourteenth century. What would you see? What would you smell? More to the point, where are you going to stay? Should you go to a castle or a monastic guesthouse? & what are you going to eat? What sort of food are you going to be offered by a peasant or a monk or a lord?

This radical new approach turns our entire understanding of history upside down. It shows us that the past is not just something to be studied; it is also something to be lived. It sets out to explain what life was like in the most immediate way, through taking you, the reader, to the middle ages, & showing you everything from the horrors of leprosy & war to the ridiculous excesses of roasted larks & haute couture.

Being a guidebook, many questions are answered which do not normally occur in traditional history books. How do you greet people in the street? What should you use for toilet paper? How fast
- & how safely
- can you travel? Why might a physician want to taste your blood? & how do you test to see if you are going down with the plague?

The result is the most astonishing social history book you are ever likely to read: revolutionary in its concept, informative & entertaining in its detail, & startling for its portrayal of humanity in an age of violence, exuberance & fear.
