pg 303

I have just read about Henry and Clare's wedding. I didn't think it was right for Henry's future self to be the one to marry Clare, because his present self will miss out on the experience for nearly a decade. A few months after their marriage, a future self of Henry's appears at the DeTamble's door, bleeding and pierced all over with glass. I'm really interested to know what happened to Henry that left him in this state and wonder if this incident stirs Clare's emotions in any way. For example, maybe this incident will negatively impact her, and she will always be focused on Henry in another time rather than in the present. She could have a perfectly intact Henry with her, but still be worrying about him in another time, missing out on the time she has with him the present. Also, I'm starting to doubt their relationship. I don't understand how it can work out for them when Clare is always stationary and Henry is forever traveling to places she can't follow.

  1. Great inferences made about The Time Traveler's Wife and description of the relationship so far in the story!

    Keep up the good work.
