Nora Eldridge is a reliable, but unremarkable, friend and neighbor,
always on the fringe of other people's achievements. But the
arrival of the Shahid family--dashing Skandar, a Lebanese scholar,
glamorous Sirena, an Italian artist, and their son, Reza--draws her
into a complex and exciting new world. Nora's happiness pushes her
beyond her boundaries, until Sirena's careless ambition leads to a
shattering betrayal. Told with urgency, intimacy, and piercing
emotion, this "New York Times "bestselling novel is the riveting
confession of a woman awakened, transformed, and abandoned by a
desire for a world beyond her own.
