Come tre fili sottili, s'intrecciano in questo romanzo le vite di tre donne lontane nel tempo. La prima è Virginia Woolf, ritratta nei suoi ultimi giorni e, con un salto temporale, mentre dà vita al personaggio della signora Dalloway. Nel frattempo Clarissa, editor newyorkese di oggi, compra i fiori per festeggiare l'amico più amato, e la signora Brown, casalinga californiana del dopoguerra, tenta di sfuggire alla prigione della sua vita matrimoniale.

Peter e Rebecca Harris sono una coppia di mezza età, sposati da oltre vent'anni. Vivono a New York e lavorano entrambi nel campo dell'arte, lui come gallerista e lei come direttrice di una rivista. Benestanti, realizzati, ben inseriti nella vita sociale newyorkese, proprietari di un appartamento in una zona prestigiosa, non hanno preoccupazioni se non il freddo rapporto con la figlia Bea, che vive a Boston. Ai più, comunque, la loro vita sembra perfetta, o perlomeno invidiabile.

Jonathan, un ragazzo introverso e insicuro, e Bobby, attraente, benvoluto ma un po' grossolano, non potrebbero essere più diversi: eppure diventano amici inseparabili e poi amanti nel corso di un'intensa e tormentata adolescenza a Cleveland, Ohio. Durante gli anni del college si perdono di vista, per poi ritrovarsi a New York dove Jonathan vive con l'amica del cuore Clare. Quando Bobby si trasferisce da loro e comincia una relazione con la ragazza, gli equilibri sentimentali e interiori dei tre ne vengono inevitabilmente sconvolti.

Simon, Catherine, Lucas. Un uomo, una donna, un bambino, tre storie ambientate a New York in epoche diverse: la seconda metà del diciannovesimo secolo, il tempo presente, un futuro post atomico imprecisato. In un romanzo sorprendente, tra atmosfere gotiche, suspense da thriller e un'avventura d'amore e di sopravvivenza, una poesia di Walt Whitman attraversa le esistenze dei tre protagonisti in un gioco di specchi tra personaggi che ritornano misteriosamente tra passato, presente e futuro.

In each section of Michael Cunningham's new book, we encounter the same group of characters: a young boy, an older man, and a young woman.

"The Children's Crusade," set in the early twenty-first century, plays with the conventions of the noir thriller as it tracks the pursuit of a terrorist band which is detonating bombs seemingly at random around the city.

Michael Cunninghams Pulitzerprisvindende "TIMERNE" skildrer tre dage i tre vidt forskellige kvinders liv. Clarissa Vaughan, forlagsredaktør i 1990'ernes New York, forbereder et selskab for sin ven, digteren Richard, og går en smuk junimorgen ud for at købe blomster. Virginia Woolf er mere end 70 år tidligere i færd med at skrive sin berømte roman "Mrs. Dalloway" og overvejer forskellige åbninger. I Los Angeles i 1949 er den hjemmegående husmor Laura Brown netop begyndt at læse "Mrs. Dalloway", men afbrydes, fordi sønnen Richie og ægtemanden Dan kræver hendes opmærksomhed.
