About this listen

One of the most beloved tales of our time!

Science fiction, mystery, a passionate love story, and a detailed history of Old New York blend together in Jack Finney's spellbinding story of a young man enlisted in a secret Government experiment.

Transported from the mid-20th century to New York City in the year 1882, Si Morley walks the fashionable "Ladies' Mile" of Broadway, is enchanted by the jingling sleigh bells in Central Park, and solves a 20th-century mystery by discovering its 19th-century roots. Falling in love with a beautiful young woman, he ultimately finds himself forced to choose between his lives in the present and the past.

A story that will remain in the listener's memory, Time and Again is a remarkable blending of the troubled present and a nostalgic past, made vivid and extraordinarily moving by the images of a time that was... and perhaps still is.

Takes Me Back

I first read this book in hardcover a few scant years after it's publication and utterly loved it. The book is lengthy and full off incredible sensory detail that takes reader/listener straight into the action and the setting. Having found Time and Again on Audible allowed me to "re-read" an old favorite with ease, thanks in large part to the superb narration of Paul Hecht. Loved every second of it!

Superb plot and incredibly moving!

Ii agree with Stdphen King that this may be the petfect time travel adventure. You don't have to be a New Yorker to become immetsed in the impeccably resrarched detail of a great city and its people in two centuries. In addition a thoughtful meditation on time. The reading feels entirely true tomsll the chstacters, one reason i enjoy most modern audio ooks.

Recommended by Stephen King

This book was mentioned by Stephen King at the end of his own time travel novel 11/23/63. The premise and idea of how time travel works is interesting, but there is a good story in this book as well. Well worth a listen.

Good Book

This was a good listen. I did enjoy the story but it has a very New York insider feel. Having never been to New York I feel that there is a lot that I am missing. I really enjoy time travel so it was still worth a listen .#Audible1
