<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>Long out of print, Shirley Hazzard's classic novel of love and memory</b> <p/>A young Englishwoman working in Naples, Jenny comes to Italy fleeing a history that threatened to undo her. Alone in the fabulously ruined city, she idly follows up a letter of introduction from an acquaintance and so changes her life forever. Through the letter, she meets Giocanda, a beautiful and gifted writer, and Gianni, a famous Roman film director and Giocanda's lover. At work she encounters Justin, a Scotsman whose inscrutability Jenny finds mysteriously attractive. As she becomes increasingly involved in the lives of these three, she discovers that the past--and the patterns of a lifetime--are not easily discarded.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Drawn so perfectly that it seems to breathe." --<i>The New York Times Book Review</i> <p/>"Hazzard's prose is clean, witty, playful, and economical. It weaves an armchair traveler's dream landscape." --<i>The New York Times</i> <p/>"Hazzard applies her intelligence to produce a shock of recognition in the reader. . .and she has succeeded brilliantly." --<i>The New Yorker</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Born in Sydney, Australia, <b>Shirley Hazzard</b> (1931-2016) lived in Hong Kong, New Zealand, Italy, and the United States.
