Like many young people, Heidi Julavits kept a diary. Ages later she found her old diaries in a storage area bin and hoped to find the early proof the individual (and article writer) she'd since become. Instead, "Some of the diaries discovered me to possess the mind of a paranoid duty auditor." The entries are daily chronicles of anxieties about levels, looks, kids, and reputation. After reading the confessions of her previous self, writes Julavits, "I want to good-naturedly laugh at this person. I want to but I can't. What she wished then is scarcely different from what I'd like today." Thus was created a aspire to try again, to chronicle her lifestyle as a 40-something female, wife, mom, and article writer. The dazzling end result is The Folded Clock, in which the diary form becomes a yoga on time and self.
