Book 1: The Man Out Of Time
Clare and Henry meet at the Newberry Library in Chicago. She's a 20-year-old art student. He's a 28-year-old librarian. Clare is overjoyed to see Henry – she tells him she has known him since she was 6. Henry doesn't remember her but agrees to go out to dinner with her, amazed at how much he means to this "luminous creature." During dinner, Clare reveals to himthat she knows about his time travel disorder and that they met for the first time when she was 6 years old and he was 43. She shows him a diary that holds all dates for his visits. Henry feels overwhelmed by all this information, but also finds himself very attracted to her. He asks Clare to pretend that this is a normal first date between two normal people. Clare apologizes for her fervor. Shetells him about her family and he tells her about his.

After dinner, Henry brings Clare home to his messy bachelor apartment. Without much ado, Clare tells him that she wants to make love to him because, for her, this day has been years in the making. Henry wants to take his time, but indulges her request nonetheless. He senses that there's something special between them. In the morning, Clarediscovers another woman's toiletries in the bathroom. Henry tells her that his relationship with that other woman is over.

Henry then recalls the first time he time traveled. It's his fifth birthday. His parents take him to the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago. Later that night, he suddenly pops back in time to the museum. A 24-year-old version of Henry takes on the job of guiding himthrough this first experience. Older Henry explains to younger Henry that he's a time traveler, but that he needs to keep his travels a secret. During Henry's teenage years, his older version teaches him time travelers' tricks of survival, including stealing, breaking and entering, and running from the police.

He calls out to Clare from behind a bush, where he's trying to conceal himself because he's naked. Clare grudgingly hands him her picnic blanket so he can cover up. But Henry explains to Clare that he's a time traveler, so he can't take anything with him as he pops in and out of time because that would really mess things up in the world. He asks herto please bring him some clothes the next time he visits and names the date. Clare is torn between fascination and suspicion. She watches Henry disappear before her eyes. On the date given, Clare waits for Henry with old clothes from her dad. When he shows up, Clare warms up to Henry and tells him that she now believes his story.

Throughout her childhood, and into her teenage years, Clare spendsa lot of time with 43-year-old Henry. Although Henry refuses to divulge details about Clare's future with him, he does share bits and pieces of Clare's future self and their relationship in his present. Clare realizes that her relationship with Henry has changed her life and makes her different from other people.
