"A man's hunger for the world—the fury of youth, the mystery of time, and the pulse of a nation."

In Of Time and the River, Thomas Wolfe paints a portrait of the artist as a young man on a grand scale. We follow Eugene Gant from the halls of Harvard University to the bustling streets of New York City and across the oceans to Europe. Driven by an insatiable hunger for knowledge, experience, and love, Eugene grapples with the weight of his family's past and the overwhelming promise of the future. Wolfe's prose is legendary—vibrant, torrential, and deeply poetic—capturing the "buried life" of humanity and the sprawling, contradictory beauty of early 20th-century America.

The "Hunger" of Youth: Eugene Gant is one of literature's most relatable seekers. His journey is defined by a frantic desire to read every book, meet every person, and see every sight. Wolfe perfectly captures that specific time in life when the world feels both impossibly large and urgently within reach.

A Symphony of Time: As the title suggests, the novel is obsessed with the flow of time—both the relentless "river" of history and the private, internal time of memory. Wolfe explores how we are shaped by the ghosts of our ancestors and the fleeting moments that define our identity.

Why It Is a Masterpiece: Of Time and the River is more than a story; it is an experience. It is a book for anyone who has ever felt "homesick for a place they've never been." Wolfe's ability to find the epic in the everyday makes this one of the most powerful and enduring works of American Modernism.
