Поредица "Contemporary American Fiction". * A penetrating, beautifully crafted portrait of that difficult, precarious, and often bewildering state known as matrimony Aspera and Will Hancock were teenage sweethearts. Now, after twenty years, that marriage is fraying. Deferred career hopes, the strains of daily life, an emotional deadness at the center of things...all cause Aspera to feel that change—any change—is in order. At her fortieth birthday party, a new and dangerous element is introduced: their friend Vicky's lover, a very attractive twenty-six-year-old man. His disruptive presence leads Aspera to confront, finally, her own needs and aspirations, and to weigh these against the enduring value of the marriage bond. "Hill's work is as clear and detailed, as delicately made, as a fine mosaic She gives us life as it too often is— and we end up loving it." —The New York Times Book Review "Her prose is dense and rich, and she shapes phrases that are stunners A book to be reread and shared" —Library Journal
