Of Time and the River

Some journeys take us across places; others take us deep into memory, identity, and the passage of time.

Enter the expansive world of Thomas Wolfe's Of Time and the River, a deeply reflective novel about youth, ambition, memory, travel, and the search for identity.

Following Eugene Gant as he moves through education, travel, relationships, and personal development, the novel explores his changing understanding of himself and the world around him. His experiences become a meditation on time, loss, ambition, family, and the desire to find meaning in an ever-changing life.

Wolfe's lyrical prose and expansive storytelling create a powerful portrait of a young man searching for his place in the world.

First published in 1935, Of Time and the River is one of Thomas Wolfe's major works and an important example of twentieth-century American literature.

Follow Eugene Gant through a journey of memory, ambition, and self-discovery in Thomas Wolfe's Of Time and the River.
