Heartbreakingly brilliant.

"This is the extraordinary love story of Clare and Henry who met when Clre was six and Henry was thirty-six, and were married when Clare was twenty-two and Henry thirty. Impossible but true, because Henry suffers from a rare condition where his genetic clock periodically resets and he finds himself pulled suddenly into his past or future. In the face of this force they neither prevent nor control, Henry and Clare's struggle to lead normal lives is both intensely moving and entirely unforgettable."

Clare: It's hard to be left behind. I wait for Henry, not knowing where he is, wondering if he's okay. It's hard to be the one who stays.
(ahh - still erupts emotion)

The best book I have read in a long time. Gripping. Unique. Believable. Touched me somewhere most books don't get to.
Just a shame I managed to soak it with my water whilst driving to an interview. The book has lots of character now, nice rippled shape....
