The Time in Between is a novel by Canadian author David Bergen. It deals with a man named Charles Boatman, who mysteriously returns to Vietnam, where he had been a soldier earlier in his life, and his children, Ada and Jon, who also go to Vietnam to search for him.

Although generally called a war novel, the author states that he "[doesn't] see The Time in Between as a war novel".[1]

The Time in Between was the recipient of the 2005 Scotiabank Giller Prize.
