Author clock’s whimsical design interweaves time + literature

With more than 2,000 quotes, Author Clock transports you to a moment in literature while checking the time. Sourcing from thousands of books and several genres across six centuries, it displays a literary quote that mentions the current time every minute of the day. E.g., if you look at the clock at midnight, you might see this line from Hamlet by William Shakespeare: Tis now struck twelve: get thee to bed, Francisco.” “Our hope is that Author will help readers discover new books, authors and genres,” says creator Jose Cardona.

The 4″ size has a desktop stand and a three-week long battery life, while the 7.5″ size can stand on a desk or mount on a wall, with a 2-month battery life. Settings such as the time, font, and the ability to omit adult language can be customized. The clock has a power-saver mode, and comes with a USB-C charging cable. Its e-reader screen reads like paper and uses zero blue light. The clock is framed in white oak wood from sustainable forests. Author Clock works with One Tree Planted to plant a sapling for every clock sold.
