  • "Meri is newly married, pregnant, and standing on the cusp of her life as a wife and mother, recognizing with some terror the gap between reality and expectation. Delia--wife of the two-term liberal senator Tom Naughton--is Meri's new neighbor in the adjacent New England town house. Tom's chronic infidelity has been an open secret in Washington circles, but despite the complexity of their relationship, the bond between them remains strong. Soon Delia and Meri find themselves leading strangely parallel lives, as they both reckon with the contours and mysteries of marriage: one refined and abraded by years of complicated intimacy, the other barely begun. With precision and a rich vitality, Sue Miller--beloved and bestselling author of While I Was Gone--brings us a highly charged, superlative novel about marriage and forgiveness.From the Trade Paperback edition."

  • "Love came late to Meri, but in a rush: she met Nathan at thirty-six and they were married two months later. Now they are exchanging their bohemian lifestyle for a house of their own in a college town: a new life that Meri is not sure she even wants. Nathan is boyishly excited by the fact that their next-door neighbour is the distinguished Senator Tom Naughton. Meri is unimpressed, yet strikes up an unexpected friendship with Naughton.©Øs wife, the elegant, patrician Delia. She becomes increasingly drawn to this private, poised older woman, sensing that she has much to learn from her about marriage, love and motherhood. But she comes closer, too, to a final, terrible breach of trust that could ruin everything."
