<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A man reflects back on three decades of his obsession with an unknown and ultimately unknowable woman--his courtship of her, his marriage to her, and the unforgivable act that ripped their family apart.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>"A marriage is always two intersecting stories." This realization comes perhaps too late to the husband of Etna Bliss-a man whose obsession with his young wife begins at the moment of their first meeting, as he helps Etna and her companions escape from a fire in a hotel restaurant, and culminates in a marriage doomed by secrets and betrayal. Written with the intelligence and grace that are the hallmarks of Anita Shreve's bestselling novels, this gripping tale of desire, jealousy, and loss is peopled by unforgettable characters as real as the emotions that bring them together.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Shreve is one of America's most entertaining historical novelists because she's more interested in telling us about individuals than the past."<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Anita Shreve</b> is the acclaimed author of more than fifteen novels, including <i>Testimony; The Pilot's Wife</i>, which was a selection of Oprah's Book Club; and <i>The Weight of Water</i>, which was a finalist for England's Orange prize.
