Product Information
Like many young people, Heidi Julavits kept a diary. Decades later she found her old diaries in a storage bin, and hoped to discover the early evidence of the person (and writer) she'd since become. Instead, "The actual diaries revealed me to possess the mind of a paranoid tax auditor." Thus was born a desire to try again, to chronicle her daily life as a fortysomething woman, wife, mother, and writer. The dazzling result is The Folded Clock , in which the diary form becomes a meditation on time and self, youth and aging, betrayal and loyalty, friendship and romance, faith and fate, marriage and family, desire and death, gossip and secrets, art and ambition. The Folded Clock is as playful as it is brilliant, a tour de force by one of the most gifted prose stylists in American letters.

Reviews
"What can I tell you about reading Heidi Julavits' diary? I almost missed my subway stop because I got so engrossed by her description of waiting at a subway stop. These meditations shimmer like creatures, always feeling for the next surprise. They are ruthlessly attentive to particulars but always sniffing after bigger questions--the biggest--and I was utterly compelled by the big-hearted engine of rigor and wonder that drives them: her live electric mind." - Leslie Jamison, author of The Empathy Exams "Reflections on being and becoming... Some entries are slyly funny, gossipy and irreverent; others, quietly intimate... An inventive, beautifully crafted memoir, wise and insightful." - Kirkus Reviews (Starred), " The Folded Clock is a joy to read. It's a treasure house of revealing stories, and a thought-provoking illustration of the way that everyday encounters--with weather, landscapes, knick knacks and civilians--provoke kaleidoscopic and dramatic memories to unfold within us. They illustrate the way the past connects to and colors the present within all our lives. Heidi's great empathy for all she encounters--whether inanimate objects like old houses, antique beds and abandoned Rolodexes--or animate ones such as neighbors, dinner guests and lovers--and her keen intelligence and wild imagination turn a 'normal' life into an extraordinary one, full of drama, mystery, fierce affections, illicit love affairs, terrible and wonderful secrets. Heidi's reflections on female desire and friendship are gripping. This is a book worth reading and re-reading." -- Rebecca Curtis, author of Twenty Grand and Other Tales of Love & Money "What can I tell you about reading Heidi Julavits' diary?

The diary angle makes for a clever hook, but masks what this really is--a compelling collection of intimate, untitled personal essays that reveal one woman's ever-evolving soul." -- Publishers Weekly, "Reflections on being and becoming...
